Hi everbody!
KWeather doesn't work when it's run under a non-us locale like de. Now I found
out that klauncher doesn't start the DCOP weather service. KWeather tells
klauncher to start the service by using
KApplication::startServiceByName("KWeatherService",....);
Now the problem is the .desktop file of the weather service. The content looks
like this:
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Service
Name=KWeatherService
...
Name[de]=KWetter-Service
...
After removing all the translated Name[...] lines the KWeather applet started
to work.
Why does KLauncher use the translated names when using startServiceByName()?
Does this really make sense?
Christian
