Language not being passed to pacman

Open SelfMadeSystem opened this issue 3 years ago • 5 comments

I set my system language to fr_CA.UTF-8. Aura and pacman both use their french translations, however when pacman is called through aura (I think), it defaults to english.

It's not a major issue for me since I speak English (obviously), but I think other people might find it more serious.

Edit: I don't know if it's a config issue for me or what, but all my applications are in french so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Edit 2: It's also annoying because the confirmation prompt in french is [O/n] for [Oui/non], but in english it's [Y/n] for [Yes/no] and it's probably worse in other languages.

For 10 years I've waited for someone to report this :laughing: Merci

I suspect it's due to how environment variables are inherited (or not) by pacman when called through Aura. Since the Rust Port works a little differently, I'll make sure this is fixed there.

Specifically I was waiting for someone to complain that Aura's language flags (like --french) don't affect pacman. Either way it needs to be fixed.

It's especially annoying because the confirmation prompt in french is [O/n] (Oui/non) but in English it's [Y/n] (Your/nose)

joke!!! ik [Y/n] is (Yes/no)

I should've mentioned that in the original issue. I'll add it
