The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[Amos Batto <address@concealed>]

Hi, I have installed Sympa 6.1in Debian Wheezy using the standard package (apt-get install sympa). Everything seems to be working, however, no "Language selection" dropdown box appears in the left-hand sidebar in my website at: http://www.reaccionclimatica.org/wws

The web page only appears in English, despite the fact that I have set "es" (Spanish) as the default language and the Spanish MO file is installed on my server.

When I try to configure a user in the web interface, there is a dropdown box to select the language of the user, but only "English" appears in the list of options.

In my /etc/sympa/sympa.conf file, I have:

###\\\\ Internationalization ////###

## Default lang (ca | cs | de | el | es | et_EE | en_US | fr | fi | hu | it | ja_JP | ko | nl | nb_NO | oc | pl | pt_BR | ru | sv | tr | vi | zh_CN | zh_TW)
## This is the default language used by Sympa
lang            es

## Supported languages
## This is the set of language that will be proposed to your users for the Sympa GUI. Don't select a language if you don't have the proper locale packages installed.
supported_lang  es,en,pt_BR,fr

In /etc/sympa/wwsympa.conf, I don't have anything under the "Internationalization" section. I have the translation files installed on the server

Any idea what is wrong? Is this a bug in the Debian package?

I tried adding this option in sympa.conf:

localedir /usr/lib/sympa/locale/

But it gave an error message, when I restarted Sympa.
