------- Additional Comments From batkoljo@mailcity.com 2006-24-11 16:14 ------- I've made a little research of the problem and I believe that I found the reason. As a matter of fact the problem isn't in the localization, but instead it is in the character set of the font used to display the messages.
I beleive that, the information of LC_CTYPE is used to decide the font's charater set and LC_MESSGAES the language. If these two variables have different character set values the messages are not displayed correctly.
Example: 1. LC_CTYPE=bg_BG (cp1251) LC_MESSAGES=en_US (cp1252) - wine will display engish massages using cp1251
2. LC_CTYPE=bg_BG (cp1251) LC_MESSAGES=ru_RU (cp1251) as the bulgarian and the russian uses the same character set the messages will be displayed correctly.
