Description Davy Defaud 2013-01-28 01:24:17 CET

"Password: ", "Authentication failure", etc.
These strings are not translated, I suspect these strings to be in PAM. This kind of problem should be familiar to "pterjan"...

still valid?

Summary: gnome-screensaver authentication dialogs are not translated => GDM and gnome-screensaver authentication strings are not translated

Comment 4 Davy Defaud 2015-06-22 22:00:41 CEST

This bug is affecting GDM also. Although the form is translated, the (yellow) strings returned by the authentication attempts are not translated. Could be related to setting the locale for PAM...

Comment 5 Pascal Terjan 2015-06-22 22:17:18 CEST

I believe the (very old) fix was http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/tcb/current/SOURCES/tcb-1.0.3-i18n.patch?revision=5880&view=markup in pam_tcb.

Are we still using pam_tcb?

Comment 6 Davy Defaud 2015-06-22 22:39:51 CEST

You ask me?
Seems so :
$ rpm -qa | grep pam
pam-1.1.8-10.mga5
lib64pam0-1.1.8-10.mga5
lib64pam-devel-1.1.8-10.mga5
lib64pam_userpass1-1.0.2-10.mga5
pam_tcb-1.1-5.mga5

Comment 7 Davy Defaud 2017-02-08 00:41:40 CET

Seems to be fixed in MGA6

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => FIXED
