VDR loading locale - vdr

29 Nov 2010


      In my case i selected these
bs_BA.UTF-8 UTF-8
bs_BA ISO-8859-2
de_AT.UTF-8 UTF-8
de_AT ISO-8859-1
de_AT@euro ISO-8859-15
en_US.UTF-8
en_US.ISO-8859-1
And did locale-gen to generate these, and all went fine. Just on VDR
1.7.16 start I see in its log this:
Nov 29 16:16:40 localhost vdr: [14907] VDR version 1.7.16 started

Nov 29 16:16:40 localhost vdr: [14907] no locale for language code 'ara'
And no other language then English is posible to select inside OSD Settings.
If i just add these more inside /etc/locale.gen
de_DE.UTF-8 UTF-8
de_DE ISO-8859-1
de_DE@euro ISO-8859-15
and do again locale-gen (which also went fine), in log is to see this:
Nov 29 16:18:52 localhost vdr: [17933] VDR version 1.7.16 started
Nov 29 16:18:52 localhost vdr: [17933] switched to user 'vdr'
Nov 29 16:18:52 localhost vdr: [17933] codeset is 'UTF-8' - known
Nov 29 16:18:52 localhost vdr: [17933] found 27 locales in /usr/share/locale
Nov 29 16:18:52 localhost vdr: [17933] no locale for language code 'por'
Nov 29 16:18:52 localhost vdr: [17933] loading plugin:
/usr/lib/vdr/plugins/libvdr-signal.so.1.7.16
And i can select there other language then just English, even no
locale for them.
Is this above normal behavior or something is wrong here...
