Bug 57369 – wrong setlocale for fluxbox fixed with included patch

• Status: RESOLVED UPSTREAM
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Don Quijote 2004-07-17 02:24:44 UTC]

I run fluxbox 0.9.9 with LANG=es_ES@euro and LC_MESSAGES=POSIX.
Instead of having the fluxbox menu in english as expected, I get it in spanish.
The patch included was found on the netbsd mailing list and solves the issue for me.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. export LANG=es_ES@euro
2. export LC_MESSAGES=POSIX
3. run fluxbox and see if the pop up menu (Configuration options) is in english (OK) or spanish (wrong).

Have you shown this to upstream?
