Bug#949151: Translation not loaded?

Source: gnutls28
Version: 3.6.11.1-2
Severity: minor

Hello,

Running strace in some application displayed the following line:

[pid 76272] openat(AT_FDCWD, "/usr/share/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES/gnutls.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type)

Apparently something is trying to load the gnutls.mo file, but the files
are installed as gnutls30.mo

Quickly looking at the code, I see the following line in lib/global.c:

        bindtextdomain(PACKAGE, LOCALEDIR);

Shouldn't either "PACKAGE" be overriden globally, or it should be
changed to PACKAGE30 as it's already the case in
debian/patches/14_version_gettextcat.diff for some other bits in the
code

Kind regards,

Laurent Bigonville
