Re: l10n for hello

[Karl Berry]

    I'm having trouble with localization for the hello program.  I built
    from the hello-2.6 tarball, and notice that locale files are going
    into /usr/local/share/local.  The use of "local" does not occur in
    any other program, so I suspect that "hello" is not seeing the
    translations.

It is true that if you build from the original source, /usr/local is the
standard installation prefix.  If the system gettext does not look
there, I'm afraid that I don't know how to tell it to, and a quick look
in the gettext manual didn't help.  I suggest taking a closer look at
whatever documentation is around, and writing to address@hidden if
no joy.

Or perhaps someone else on this list will know the answer.

Sorry,
