[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#928302: please provide virt-manager.mo for en instead of en_GB

[Marc Haber]

Package: virt-manager
Version: 1:2.0.0-3
Severity: normal

Hi,

virt-manager's English language file is delivered as en_GB. which causes
a system with configured LANGUAGE=en_US:de to speak German. Moving the
file to en from en_GB causes it to be used for en_US as well.

Since it doesn't make much sense to deliver a virt-manager.mo for every
English variant and/or to put every English variant into LANGUAGE, it
would probably be the best solution to deliver
/usr/share/locale/en_GB/LC_MESSAGES/virt-manager.mo as
/usr/share/locale/en/LC_MESSAGES/virt-manager.mo instead.

Thanks for considering.

Greetings
Marc
