Strange behavior with languages

[dunhill]

I'm experiencing strange behavior in my Calibre 8.3. I use it with a Spanish-language user interface on Linux.
Lately, every time I start it, it appears in English.

[kovidgoyal]

Langugae is determined by two things, the value of the preference and the environment variable CALIBRE_OVERRIDE_LANG

[dunhill]

Apparently it was wikidata that was preventing the language set in Preference/Appearance Select Language from loading.

[PeterT]

What would be interesting is the portion of the calibre log showing what versions are in use.

I've had no issues loading the wikidata plugin 2.0.0 using the official 8.3 linux release of calibre.

I've had no issues loading the wikidata plugin 2.0.0 using the official 8.3 linux release of calibre.

My opinion is either post the entire log or don't post it at all.

[dunhill]

The previously published logs were using CALIBRE_OVERRIDE_LANG=es calibre from the terminal.

Here's the debug mode log.

I will admit I'm no longer sure what issue we're meant to be looking for.

Do remember that plugins need to be specifically coded to allow for translations and also require someone (either the developer or a user) supply the translations for all strings that need translation.

But even if any language is selected in preferences/appearance, calibre does not seem to respect that parameter. Following Kovid's instructions, I created the calibre.desktop file in this path .local/share/applications/ with this inside

Continuing with this topic, the Hispanic community has noticed some differences in the language browser in the portable version 3.48 image 1 it said Galician and in version 7.26 it says Galician image 2

The thing is, 3.48 is too old for any sort of fixes. So is 7.26.

No, JSWolf, my intention was not to make changes in those versions, only that it can be observed that in v3.48 "Galician" is correctly translated to "Gallego" and that in recent versions including v8.4 it appears as Galician

Language name translations come from upstream, the debian iso-codes project.
