[Pkg-games-ubuntu] [Bug 694665] Re: Square blocks shown instead of translated strings in some areas (when language is set to marathi)

[Gerfried Fuchs]

Marathi is one of the languages which isn't translated too well at all,
you can see the stats of the translation work of wesnoth here:
http://www.wesnoth.org/gettext/

Unfortunately it is even unknown to the developers whether the GUI code
would be able to cope with a font for that language. The only way to get
this bug "fixed" for me is thus to disable the language from selection,
at all. I'm uncertain if that is really something we should do, though.

Thanks for understanding,
Rhonda

Title:
  Square blocks shown instead of translated strings in some areas (when
  language is set to marathi)

Status in “wesnoth-1.8” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: wesnoth-1.8

  I am taking a look at translated UI of Wesnoth and also trying to do
  some of my own translations. The language of translations is Marathi
  (mr_IN.UTF-8). The problem is that I see square blocks in some areas
  of game instead of translated strings. This seems to be mostly affect
  action widgets (where I click mouse) such as menus, buttons etc. There
  is no problem in translation display for labels such as story
  narration, unit descriptions, dialogs etc.

  Please find attached the screenshots. One shows problem while other
  doesn't. Please note that translation strings shown here are not
  present in original package. But the issue is seen with the strings
  available in package also (specifically 'Actions' menu after starting
  a campaign).
