Description nikos papadopoulos 2016-11-07 12:51:20 CET
Description of problem:
Installing kdiff3 will install unwanted locale (.mo) files.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open drakrpm
2. install kdiff3
3. check locales folders; unwanted files got installed;
example:
/usr/share/locale/da/LC_MESSAGES/kdiff3fileitemactionplugin.mo
/usr/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/kdiff3fileitemactionplugin.mo

Note:
According to pkgs.org, Mageia Cauldron uses a similar package:
kdiff3-0.9.98-5.mga6.i586.rpm

Maybe, someone would want to check this one, too.

$ kdiff3

Opens the application as expected. I suppose using C locale on en_GB.
