Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 247797

(Mozilla Localizations :: de / German, defect)

Description

[Wolfi]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (OS/2; U; Warp 4.5; de-AT; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050425 Mnenhy/0.7.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (OS/2; U; Warp 4.5; de-AT; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050425 Mnenhy/0.7.1

Trying to start the Calender (25.04.05  1.836.286 calendar.jar), which is part
of
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/releases/mozilla1.7.7/contrib/mozilla-1.7.7-os2.zip,
after
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/l10n/lang/moz1.77/mozilla-1.7.7.de-AT.langpack.xpi
is installed and the language set to de-AT, always results in an error message.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. modern theme
2. install language pack, restart Mozilla
3. select Deutsch (de-AT), restart Mozilla
4. start Calender

Actual Results:  
"Title"-window opens up with yellow background:

XML-Verarbeitungsfehler: Unbekannte Entity
Adresse: chrome://calendar/content/calendar.xul
Zeile Nr. 395, Spalte 21:

   <menuitem label="&calendar.context.refreshserver.label;"
--------------------^ 

/* how can I attach a screenshot of that message, rather than having to type all
that stuff? */

Expected Results:  
Calender starting up, as it does, when
Preferences->Appearance->Language/Contents->Installed Languages
is set to English (US) 

This happens with every de-AT.jar, later than for Mozilla 1.7.5.

In Help:About the beforementioned Calendar version identifies itself as:
   Mozilla Calendar 2004040813-cal

By "upgrading" the "Calendar" portion within the file
  16.04.05 17.08  3.228.008  0 a---  de-AT.jar_1.7.7
with the following listed files out of
http://www.dur.ac.uk/p.m.weilbacher/Mozilla/de-AT-jar-1.7.6.zip, 
which actually seem to originate around the time of Mozilla 1.7.1
(16...20.06.2004), I managed in the meantime, to get Calendar to work now also
with the language setting Deutsch (de-AT):

 Verzeichnis von Q:\175Fix\locale\de-AT\calendar
20.06.04  8.45         22.336    226 a---  calendar.dtd
16.06.04 10.14          4.311    233 a---  calendar.properties
16.06.04 10.14          1.982    235 a---  categories.properties
16.06.04 10.14          3.299    235 a---  dateFormat.properties
16.06.04 10.14          2.186    230 a---  email.properties
16.06.04 10.14          4.877    229 a---  menuOverlay.dtd

So far I didn't notice any bad side effects, but the problem should be fixed
with future language packs, to avoid this kind of tinkering.

Related to Bug 247797?

[Peter Weilbacher]

As Robert is using the trunk for his calendar strings (because people on other
platforms install that version from XPI) some problems are inevitable. So this
is a dupe of 247797.
