Description Cheng-Chia Tseng 2017-03-05 14:56:06 UTC

Epty list of supported language

Description of problem:

Blender supports internationalization since 2.6. 
I have downloaded official blender package myself, and the internationalization works well. I can change to "Traditional Chinese" language via checking "International Fonts" option in "File > User Preferences > System" dialogue, and then check "Interface" and "Tooltips" for my native language.

However, the version distributed by Fedora cannot take this advantage of blender again. (It happened with 2.77 before)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.78b

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. launch blender
2. check "International Font" option in System tab of File > User Preferences dialogue
3. there is no supported language listed. If you are in zh_TW locale, after clicking "Interface" button for translation, you will see characters as in squares which means blender cannot load the right glyph

Actual results:
You don't see a list of supported languages. And the UI does not load the right glyph for translations in zh_TW locale

Expected results:
The internationalization work of blender should work fine out of box as the official one.

A new patch was set to use system locale rather than the default directory from Blender. Currently the list of languages is broken.
However, the characters for international fonts support are restored using 
Meanwhile, could you test this version please?

The right glyph for translation in zh_TW local should display properly on Blender interface.

Comment 4 Cheng-Chia Tseng 2017-03-14 15:37:16 UTC
Yeah, the right glyph for zh_TW locale displayed fine in that version. :)
