Description Allison Karlitskaya (desrt) 2005-03-28 09:18:41 UTC 
gweather passes around a whole whack of 'untrans_name' strings.  davyd thinks
that these are a relic from older times and aren't really needed anymore.  he's
probably right.

fix this sometime after the branch.
Comment 1 Allison Karlitskaya (desrt) 2005-03-29 03:11:26 UTC 
Davyd branched today.  Fixed in HEAD now.
Comment 2 Kjartan Maraas 2005-03-29 18:04:20 UTC 
If this fixes the memory management problems / leaks it would be nice if we
could backport gweather-xml.c changes to the stable branch as well.
Comment 3 Allison Karlitskaya (desrt) 2005-03-30 05:21:04 UTC 
I'm fairly sure the XML parser is free of leaks now (although something
elsewhere is still leaking between 15-50k per open/close of the preferences dialog).

It also solves the gnome_i18n_get_language_list nastiness.

I agree that this should go into 2.10.1.  Reopening.  Davyd?
Comment 4 Danielle Madeley 2005-03-30 05:31:42 UTC 
Go on, back port it. It's better then it being broken in gnome-2-10.
Comment 5 Allison Karlitskaya (desrt) 2005-03-30 06:12:04 UTC 
These changes break exactly one freeze stable branch:  String freeze.

The following string has been added:

_("Failed to load the Locations XML database.  Please report this as a bug.")

This is a "the impossible has happened" type error that the user will never see
(unless someone breaks the XML file).
