Check whether langpacks are installed before using them (!8) · Merge requests · UBports / Development / Core / libusermetrics

Guido Berhörster requested to merge fix-i18n into main Dec 07, 2022

Translations for native packages are obtained by shelling out to gettext(1) with TEXTDOMAINDIR set to /usr/share/locale-langpack which fails if no language packs are installed and/or available. Add a fallback to /usr/share/locale for the "translationPath" property and TEXTDOMAINDIR environment variable.

Hardcoding paths isn't good but it's already there and I think we should fix that systematically another day.

This fixes #3 (closed).

After applying this we should probably revert the workarounds.
