Description Martin Pitt 2006-10-05 13:16:56 UTC 
From https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/gnome-vfs2/+bug/62502:

The name of the volumes you can see in Computer (Floppy Drive, CD-RW Drive and so on) appears untranslated in my Spanish desktop.

However, the translations is fully completed in Rosetta.

The problem is that gnome-vfs-daemon does not call setlocale().

call setlocale() in daemon

This is the patch I applied to the Ubuntu package. Works fine, drive names are translated now.

Thanks, good catch! :)
Years ago, I spent some time trying to find the reason for the lack of localization but I didn't succeed.

Confirming.

I wrote an email to the mailing list asking for review.
