Machine Type: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
Bash Version: 4.2
Patch Level: 25
Release Status: release
Description:
TEXTDOMAIN must be defined before TEXTDOMAINDIR - otherwise it does not
work.
Use of $"text" in functions does not work if TEXTDOMAIN{,DIR} is defined
below the defined function - regardless of application flow.
Repeat-By:
#!/bin/bash
l1="/tmp/test/de/LC_MESSAGES" # adjust according to your needs
l2="/tmp/test" # short form of above
mkdir -p $l1
echo -e 'msgid "failed"\nmsgstr "worked"' | msgfmt -o $l1/test.mo -
echo test1
export TEXTDOMAINDIR=$l2
export TEXTDOMAIN=test
f() {
echo ' '$"failed"
}
echo ' '$"failed"
f
echo test2
unset TEXTDOMAINDIR TEXTDOMAIN
export TEXTDOMAIN=test
export TEXTDOMAINDIR=$l2
echo ' '$"failed"
f
echo test3
unset f
f() {
echo ' '$"failed"
}
echo ' '$"failed"
f
Fix:
You must set TEXTDOMAIN before TEXTDOMAINDIR (bug?!)
You must set TEXTDOMAIN{,DIR} above the function (unexpexted for me)
