emerge is from sys-apps/portage qsize is from app-portage/portage-utils Please file separate bug reports for separate packages. This one is now restricted to sys-apps/portage. I'd say numeric formatting is part of localization. So either english text + english numeric formatting or localized text + localized numeric formatting. Localizing numeric formatting only seems wrong to me. Ok, I have created the bug/enhancement, the bug #503646, for only the app-portage/portage-utils. Discarded here the qsize and app-portage/portage-utils. Thanks. Hello Sebastian. I don't know how is developed the application and how store the information, but if all the sizes are writed in entire numbers (bytes), like a filesystem, I think that's no problem for print in localized format. I would prefer to not have localisation of this at all. It makes it annoying to help users. And the benefit for the users vs. the work for the developers does not seem to be cost-effective. Of course, if users feel *very* strongly about this, I might be persuaded otherwise... I can see today (more than 3 years later...) that Michał Górny write the commit 5f519fc3a9912e993f7cc0e55792deb2bc262559 on the 29 of same month of bug creation referent to solve the localization. Thanks! This bug is not mentioned and isn't marked as resolved/fixed, because probably is not the same thing (I doubt it). The most important of the bug seems solved. Regards. |
