Bug Description

Binary package hint: update-manager

Hi,
there is no German translated update-manager, since the Upgrade to Feisty Fawn (amd64), though nearly all other packages are fully tanslated.
I installed all relevant German-related language packages, e.g. lanuguage-pack-gnome-de and my system is up-to-date (auf dem aktuellen Stand ;-)).
In language-selector I chose German as the preferred language and even deselected the English internationalization. Additionally, I chose German in the GNOME login manager, all with the same result: no German translated update manager.

Greetings,
Andi

Additional info:
The button "Schließen" (English: Close) exists, though it is the only translated part of update-manager.
A "gksudo strace update-manager" produced too much output to post, thus I have no further "forensic" data...

Hi,
I solved the problem by deinstalling ALL supported language, booting, installing ONLY German as supported language and again booting.
After that one can install English as another supproted language, however the default has to be German. Then the update-manager language's going to be German.

Thanks.

The translation is part of language-pack-de-base. Did you use update-manager to upgrade your system? If so please attach all files of the directory /var/log/dist-upgrader.

Thanks,

Sebastian

Andi, I believe you didn't have the 'language-pack-de' or 'language-pack-de-base' installed. The "Schliessen"-Button came from the installed 'language-pack-gnome-de'.

Please attach the file that Sebatian asked for that we can further analyze the problem. Did you install the German language packages before you upgraded to feisty or after?

Thanks

dist-upgrade.logs Edit (31.6 KiB, application/x-tar)

Hi,
attached the required logs.
I didn't install the language packages, because that did the upgrade process for me. After I upgraded to feisty, there update manager wasn't localized, so deinstalled all language packages and reinstalled them as described. The packages 'language-pack-de' or 'language-pack-de-base' had to be installed because before the upgrade to feisty nearly everything, esp. the update manager, was localized.
Anyway, as described, now my update manager is German localized...
