Gconf keys doesn't show translated

[Juanje Ojeda]

Binary package hint: gconf

I'm checking this in a fresh instalation of Ubuntu Jaunty (stable) plus the
last updated (the result is the same that before the update).
The version of Gconf is: 2.26.0-0ubuntu1

If you check in gconf-editor or with gconttool-2 (from a non-English
environment) any gconf key's description you'll get always in English.

For exmaple:

guada@jaunty:~$ gconftool --short-docs /apps/gnome_settings_daemon/keybindings/calculator
Launch calculator
guada@jaunty:~$ LANG=es gconftool --short-docs /apps/gnome_settings_daemon/keybindings/calculator
Launch calculator
guada@jaunty:~$ LANG=es_ES gconftool --short-docs /apps/gnome_settings_daemon/keybindings/calculator
Launch calculator
guada@jaunty:~$ LANG=es_ES.UTF-8 gconftool --short-docs /apps/gnome_settings_daemon/keybindings/calculator
Launch calculator
guada@jaunty:~$ LANG=es.UTF-8 gconftool --short-docs /apps/gnome_settings_daemon/keybindings/calculator
Launch calculator
guada@jaunty:~$ LANG=it gconftool --short-docs /apps/gnome_settings_daemon/keybindings/calculator
Launch calculator

It seems to me to be related with the changes made for the GNOME bug 568845
(http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=568845).

And this causes problems like the bug GNOME 576570
(http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=576570) which is connected with the Ubuntu bug #359247.

I can confirm the behavior pointed by Juanje. Seems to be in the right direction.
