Description: | GTK supports locales that have a major right-to-left directionality (Hebrew, Arabic, Farsi and such). When such a locale is installed as is in effect (see below) the layout of gmenuselect is quite messed up. usable, but not easy to understand.
workarounds: The directionality of a GTK application is set from the LC_MESSAGES component of the locale. Hence, depending on your LANG/LC_*/LC_ALL/LANGUAGES (see the output of locale) you can override it with either: {code} LANG=C make gmenuselect LC_LOCALE=C make gmenuselect LC_ALL=C make gmenuselect {code} | ||

By: Kevin Harwell (kharwell) 2018-07-11 13:59:19.744-0500 [~tzafrir] Were you thinking of submitting a patch for this? By: Kevin Harwell (kharwell) 2018-07-11 14:04:08.577-0500 If not (going to submit a patch) can you describe more the process to replicate this problem and maybe show some sample output of the problem (screenshot maybe)? For instance, based on your description I installed the Hebrew locale on my system and then compiled using: {noformat} LC_ALL==he_IL.utf8 make gmenuselect {noformat} Is that all that is required? |
