Bug 335292 – media-gfx/gtkam-0.1.17: gimp plugin doesn't work at all in Russian locale

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Alexander E. Patrakov 2010-08-30 17:19:50 UTC]

[ebuild   R   ] media-gfx/gtkam-0.1.17  USE="gimp nls -debug -gnome"

This is expected to add menu items to GIMP menu that capture and download images from a camera. This does work in English locales. In Russian locales, such menu items don't appear.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install gtkam
2. rm -rf ~/.gimp-2.6 ; LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8 gimp
3. inspect the menu
Actual Results:  
No camera-related menu items unless I run gimp manually once in the C locale.

Expected Results:  
Two additional items in the "Файл > Создать" (Russian translation of "File > Create") menu

Gimp prints this on stderr:

aep@home ~ $ gimp
GIMP-Предупреждение: Plug-In "gtkam-gimp"
(/usr/lib64/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/gtkam-gimp)
attempted to install procedure "gtkam-capture" in the invalid menu location "<Панель инструментов>/Файл/Получить/Захватить с камеры...".
Use either "<Toolbox>", "<Image>", "<Layers>", "<Channels>", "<Vectors>", "<Colormap>", "<Load>", "<Save>", "<Brushes>", "<Gradients>", "<Palettes>", "<Patterns>" or "<Buffers>".

GIMP-Предупреждение: Plug-In "gtkam-gimp"
(/usr/lib64/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/gtkam-gimp)
attempted to install procedure "gtkam-load" in the invalid menu location "<Панель инструментов>/Файл/Получить/Загружить с камеры...".
Use either "<Toolbox>", "<Image>", "<Layers>", "<Channels>", "<Vectors>", "<Colormap>", "<Load>", "<Save>", "<Brushes>", "<Gradients>", "<Palettes>", "<Patterns>" or "<Buffers>".

Translation back to English: Предупреждение = warning, "<Панель инструментов>/Файл/Получить/" = "<Toolbar>/File/Acquire"

I.e. it attempts to add items to a non-existing menu "Файл > Получить" instead of the proper "Файл > Создать" menu. Probably this can be "fixed" by disabling all translations (this is not the same as masking the nls USE-flag!).

I think you should report this directly to upstream:
http://gphoto.org/bugs/

[Comment 2 Alexander E. Patrakov 2010-09-03 13:35:53 UTC]

Done, see the URL

[Comment 3 Alexander E. Patrakov 2011-01-09 10:34:54 UTC]

Since upstream is unresponsive, please fix the bug in gentoo, even if this means losing all translations.

[Comment 4 Pacho Ramos 2012-01-31 09:05:35 UTC]

Yes, the plugin is now visible in the menu.
