[Pkg-electronics-devel] Bug#977045: kicad: Translation paths are not correct

[Thomas Maaß]

Package: kicad
Version: 5.1.8+dfsg1-1+b1
Severity: normal
Tags: l10n

Dear Maintainer,

Kicad in Debian is not fully translated, because the path for kicad.mo is not
correct. For example for German, when I create
/usr/share/kicad/internat/de/kicad.mo instead of
/usr/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/kicad.mo, as it comes with the package, the
translations are as expected.

Regards
Thomas
