Hi,
I can't take the time right now to install Village RC2, so I want to work on the configuration files with the install I already have, which is up to date, and was changed to French after I installed it. Well after this update, I again find menus in English about everywhere, and I re-re configured checked and reinstalled, checked the files "environment" and "locale"...
What else ? I compiled obsession, and got all in French except one entry which is "Cancel" and should be "Annuler", in French.
You can install obsession for Debian testing this way : get the tarball here:
http://meets.free.fr/debian/obsession-debian.tar.xzas root move it to / and untar:
tar xvfJ obsession-debian.tar.xz
remove the tarball.
All the files will be installed directly to /usr/local in the relevant subdirectories, then you can test it.
PS: could you check that upower is installed in all Debian spins ? In Scorpio it was not. I would also be nice to get all base alsa packages (not just 2): alsa-tools, alsa-oss, alsa-utils, plus a mixer (even alsamixer-gui with libfltk would be better than none).
