Package: eclipse-nls-sdk
Version: 2.1.1.1-1
Severity: normal
When using eclipse with a locale set eclipse respects this locale. But
in a wrong way. I have only set LC_CTYPE to de-DE@euro, all other to
POSIX, because I want all system messages and programs in english. But
eclipse has a german interface in that case. I think it should only
respect LANG, not LC_CTYPE.

Thanks for your report, but I cannot reproduce it.
I tried to do that like this,

Umm... I cannot reproduce it yet. I saw only English catalogs with
all patterns.
Marco, did you invoke eclipse same terminal prompt with that was
set/exported locale environment?
And could you test it with another new user?

Yes, of course. Otherwise I wouldn't have had the change between English,
German and Japanese.
> And could you test it with another new user?
I did and it was exactly the same. I also tried setting other locale
variables to de_DE@euro. It seems that only LC_CTYPE changes the interface
to German. Not even setting LC_MESSAGES gives me a german interface.

Marco

I found it depended on what JRE you used.
When you use Sun-Java 5 or 6, LC_MESSAGES isn't respected but
LC_CTYPE is.
On the other hand, if you use Gcj or Kaffe, LC_MESSAGES is
respected but LC_CTYPE isn't.
So I think this is Sun Java's problem or specification, rather
than Eclipse's.
Thanks,

I have tested it and you are right. The locales work correctly with kaffe.
So you can close this bug, as it seems to be a problem with suns
implementation.

The sun-java5 source package was removed from Debian/non-free in 2009,
before the squeeze release, thus closing the remaining stray bugs now.
