Re: can't get windows version to start

 

Trying to understand what happens exactly, but seems to me this is between
the gettext and locale libraries. Not something I can fix directly from
zim. Patched the offending code to at least catch the error and fallback to
no translation.

Btw. if you want to load the Norwegian Bokmal translation and avoid the
error, setting the environment parameter "LANGUAGE" to "nb" should do the
trick.

Jaap
