Johannes and I decided to remove the translatable names for the "standard"<br>
categories, because they caused a lot problems, and some of them simply can't<br>
be solved if the user switches Locales (as we know now after a lot of<br>
testing).<br>
<br>
This means that we had to remove and change some entrenched KPA structures<br>
(dual storage of C locale and translated names, name() and text() distinction<br>
and so on). Very likely, we have some regressions.<br>
<br>
Would everybody be so kind to check the current git master for working fine<br>
both with new and existing databases (have a backup ;-)? Also please check the<br>
categories settings dialog.<br>
<br>
Any testing would be greatly appreciated :-)<br>
<br>
Cheers, Tobias<br>
