GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 671736
Provide translations for "default:LTR" for RTL locales
Last modified: 2012-03-09 17:56:09 UTC
GNOME Shell used to implement its own text-direction API re-using translations from GTK+. We recently switched to the implementation provided by clutter, but the list of supported locales is less than impressive and those that exist are often incomplete (which is fine given that there are not really any user-visible strings in Clutter). To avoid a regression for shell users with RTL locales, add/update a couple of translations (based on the list of RTL locales in GTK+).
Created attachment 209331 [details] [review] Update Hebrew translations RTL locales need to translate the "default:LTR" string to have clutter_actor_get_text_direction() return the expected result; as GNOME Shell now makes use of that API, users of RTL locales would be up for an unpleasant surprise, so add the required translation.
Created attachment 209332 [details] [review] Add skeleton translations for RTL locales RTL locales need to translate the "default:LTR" string to have clutter_actor_get_text_direction() return the expected result; as GNOME Shell now makes use of that API, users of RTL locales would be up for an unpleasant surprise, so add all locales that translate "default:LTR" to "default:RTL" in GTK+.
Review of attachment 209331 [details] [review]: obviously correct.
Review of attachment 209332 [details] [review]: looks okay to me.
