Hello,

is it possible that you can integrate other Language packages for BleachBit as e.g German?

That would be great.

Thanks
Andreas

BleachBit is in 35 languages including German. German was added April 2009 in BleachBit 0.4.1. Which version are you using? Windows or Linux?

Hello Andrew,

I use Pardus-Linux and version of BleachBit is 0.7.1

If I start BleachBit I have it only in English.

  1. How do you install BleachBit? Is there a package for Pardus, or do you install from source?
  2. Open a terminal and run echo $LANG to check it is set to German (should say de_DE.UTF8 or something very similar).
  3. Is there a file /usr/share/locale/de_DE/LC_MESSAGES/bleachbit.mo ? If not, look for bleachbit.mo in another place and tell me where it is. The command for searching is find / | grep bleachbit.mo$

Hello Andrew,

I installed BleachBit from Source and here the outputs:

Andreas@PC-Andreas ~ $ echo $LANG
de_DE.UTF-8
Andreas@PC-Andreas ~ $ find / | grep bleachbit.mo$
find: "/lost+found": Keine Berechtigung

It seems your installation is not complete. Do you have gettext installed (specifically the program 'msgfmt')? Could you please paste both the command you use to install ('sudo make install' or whatever you really use) and the output of the command?

Hello Andrew,

I did forget to make this:

make -C po local
python bleachbit.py

Now I have done and BleachBit is in German.

Thanks for your help.

Greetings
