Distribution: Mandriva 2007.0 Version of geany: 0.10.2
Did you use any package or compile geany on your own?
I compiled geany on my own.
If yes, please have a look into your installation directory, if there is a file geany.mo.
No, sorry, that file does not exist.
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?
Version of gtk: gtk+2.0-2.10.3-4mdv2007.0 The message of locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_NUMERIC=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_TIME=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_COLLATE=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_MONETARY=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_MESSAGES=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_PAPER=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_NAME=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_ADDRESS=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_TELEPHONE=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_MEASUREMENT=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_IDENTIFICATION=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_ALL=
Looks good. The locales are set correctly so I think we are looking for a bug.
Can you please send the output geany gives, when you start it from console?
There is really no output to console from geany.
What I didn't mention yet is that a few items in the menues and in the toolbars (the very common ones?) *are* in German, like "Neu" od "Speichern" instead of "New" or "Save".
