Bug Description

Binary package hint: amule

when the system language is hebrew (or other rtl probably) you can't see any text in the lists (this is the important text)
it's possible to mark the line of the text and double click it but you cant read it.
if you change the system language back to english you can read the text with no problem.

i have this problem with amule from fiesty and amule from gutsy on two different computers.

here is a screenshot: http://img129.imageshack.us/img129/7162/44380172jy4.png
this is a screenshot of my shard files witch have 110 files and i've marked one of them but the text is invisible and i can't see the names.

There's a bounty on for fixing this issue:

To reproduce:

- change language to Hebrew
- open AMule
- Ta-dah.

same here.

Ubuntu Feisty - set with default language hebrew.
The mule shows a connected state, while the server list appears empty (there are servers on the list), so I attempted a search. 300 results were found but the list appears empty.

Similar problem appear when watching pages in firefox - the "missing" data is way to the right, but is reachable with the scrollbar. In amule it's not reachable with the scrollbar (beyond the scrollbar horizon). this might be a bug in the wxwidgets <-> rtl.

This happens in Jaunty. When aMule's language is Hebrew, the list items don't appear. Here's a screenshot of how it is in Hebrew and how it is in English.

I can see text in Hebrew interface, but no text in search results (even though the number of the search results is specified).

Yes, that's the case...
Are you responsible for the translation?
Is this project still maintained?
