Hi,
If you didn't use any prefix you should find them at /usr/local/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES
The subdirectory locale is not available in /usr/local/share. Could that be the problem?
Probably yes. How did you run the configure script and what was the output. Were there any error messages at the end of the configure script? There should be some output like the following at the end of the script before it generates the Makefiles: checking locale.h usability... yes checking locale.h presence... yes checking for locale.h... yes checking for LC_MESSAGES... yes checking for libintl.h... (cached) yes checking for ngettext in libc... yes checking for dgettext in libc... yes checking for bind_textdomain_codeset... yes checking for msgfmt... /usr/bin/msgfmt checking for dcgettext... yes checking for gmsgfmt... /usr/bin/msgfmt checking for xgettext... /usr/bin/xgettext checking for catalogs to be installed... be ca cs de es fi fr hu it nl pl pt_BR ru vi zh_CN zh_TW c
Can you please send the output geany gives, when you start it from console?
There is really no output to console from geany.
Frank didn't mention that you have to run geany with the argument -d to get some output(see geany --help for more information).
I didn't mention yet that a few items in the menus and in the toolbars are in German, like "Neu" or "Speichern" instead of "New" or "Save".
That's good. This means that your GTK installation itself runs with the German locale. These buttons like Save and New are standard GTK buttons therefore they get translated by GTK.
