Description Christian Neumair 2004-03-10 21:00:19 UTC
IRC key quotes. Christian Persch and me already discussed on possible
implementations. Quotes are pounded to increase readability:
<Manny> scenario: I start GNOME for the first time, LC_ALL is C or unset.
Ephy inits bookmarks and adds default entry for "Search the web". I log out
and re-login, this time with LANG="de". It is still "Search the web". I'd
like to have some dynamic system
<chpe> not sure how that would work... after all the default bmk is now a
bookmark in your bookmarks set, it shouldn't change should it
<Manny> I don't know, maybe we could simply add it as "Search the web" and
add a special flag ... if (bmk_is_builtin (bkm)) return _(bkm->name); else
return bkm->name;
<chpe> hmm, a bit too hacky for my taste :)
<chpe> I suppose we could have multiple bookmarks files which would be
merged on startup
<chpe> i.e. a system one and your own one
<Manny> you reduce hackability by splitting the beast up? You still have a
special status for those bookmarks
<chpe> Manny: then we could use xml:lang in the system one
<Manny> so it needs to be global and unfortunately this would mean we'd
have to implement an even more hacky system for hiding a global bookmark
(assuming the user deletes it).

regs,
 Chris

Mass reassigning of Epiphany bugs to epiphany-maint@b.g.o
Comment 2 Reinout van Schouwen 2005-12-27 21:37:19 UTC
There are plans to give smart bookmarks a special status. Also the bookmarks storage system will be overhauled. We shouldn't forget to improve i18n when redesigning this.

This was fixed some time ago in master.

Ah nevermind. This is a different bug.
Comment 6 Michael Catanzaro 2016-09-28 16:08:33 UTC
The only remaining default bookmark is GNOME, which doesn't require internationalization.

We don't actually have any default bookmarks at the moment.
Comment 8 Michael Catanzaro 2016-09-29 10:17:44 UTC
How hard is it to bring back the GNOME bookmark? We need to remove default-bookmarks.rdf.in if it's not used anymore, but it would be highly desirable to not remove default bookmarks.
