Description Asalkhanov Peter 2004-10-14 13:53:22 CEST
The (null)'s are instead of the weekday names. The month is also not displayed.
While, I am not an avid user of the calendar, it is most probably a bug.

While started in terminal it displays the following errors:

The errors are displayed only while opening the calendar window, not at the
actual start of the app.
If any other information is needed, I will provide it.
My guess is that it wants russian translations for the weekdays, or somesuch as
my locale is set to KOI8-R
Comment 2 Brian J. Tarricone (not reading bugmail) 2004-10-15 03:19:28 CEST
odd.  if your particular locale doesn't have translations, it should fall back
to english.  i don't know all that much about xfcalendar; we'll have to wait for
mikael to look at it.

Another thing. Tooltip for the clock shows just a blank space, instead of the
date and whatnot.
Comment 4 kautto.juha 2004-10-17 12:42:16 CEST
does it work if you set 
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
?
What does your 
locale 
command show when you have the problem ?

If the locale is set to en_US.UTF-8, then the setting works.
I am testing it now with vnc started over ssh. Changing locale before starting
xfce (as vnc session) and the calendar works (that is, it does show all the
weekday names.
Strangely, locales of the xterms that are started by default with xfce show
LANG=ru_RU.KOI8-R
Comment 6 korbinus editbugs 2004-10-18 22:25:54 CEST
I don't know what to say.I did an export LANG=ru_RU.KOI8-R here and it looked
like xfcalendar behaved correctly, I had a lot strange characters (but not
cyrilic) for the name of the day of week and the month, so I guessed it worked
fine. I have not any error message either.

Do you have ru.po in your po directory?
Comment 7 Asalkhanov Peter 2004-10-18 22:57:18 CEST
If you mean the ru.po in sources po directory, then yes there was. It appears to
have russian translations in UTF. Supposedly it should show them in KOI, if
locale is set to KOI...

I can try recompiling the calendar, but I doubt it will help.
Comment 8 Jasper Huijsmans editbugs 2004-11-14 11:05:07 CET
The names are set by the gtk calendar widget and the bug is therefore in gtk and
not Xfce. There's nothing we can do about it.
Comment 9 Brian J. Tarricone (not reading bugmail) 2007-01-26 18:58:36 CET
Moving all bugs to new Orage product.
