But the libraries have been. Which means that you might have applications that use the old libraries and translations AND applications that use the new libraries and translations installed at the same time. With the translations packaged as they are now; either the new applications the old application or both aren't fully localized. In particular, strings coming from the library itself (some of which can show up in the GUI) are not localized. So, unless the plan is to drop KDE 3 entirely from Squeeze, including libraries and applications that haven't been ported away from those applications, this is a bug that will need to be addresses (IMHO). -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. bss@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/
