New comment from upstream (which I find satisfactory). Maybe then we should change the package from gtk to gnome-*?
------------ Comment #3 from Owen Taylor (gtk+ developer, points: 25) 2008-05-08 17:44 UTC [reply] English is also the second language of many people who ues C+acute as their first language. While their are certainly numerically more people who speak languages with the cedilla, there are some major languages (Polish in particular) that go the other way. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C4%86, though I think the list there is not exhaustive.) There is a perfectly good way of representing "I want a English UI but preferences for some other lanugage" ... the LC_* variables. (GTK+ checks LC_CTYPE for picking the default IM module.) The fact that there is no good interface for setting this in GNOME is not a reason to change GTK+. As a bonus, this will give people the right collation, currency values, thousands separators, and so forth. ** Changed in: gtk+2.0 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- libgtk2 immodules has cedilla disabled in en locales https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/228077 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
