Hi,

is there a German language version of QuickQuote available?

Thanks

Yes.  The most recent QuickQuote XPI file (version 0.8) for Thunderbird
should include a working German localization, which should be enabled by
default (if you have the German version of Thunderbird).  The one file
includes all available translations.


Enjoy,

Daniel W. Steinbrook

I have the German Thunderbird and the 0.8 XPI, but mine is English. Any
chance of getting it German?

Thanks

That's really weird; I thought I had fixed all of the localizations for
this release.

Check the following:
- Are you using the de-DE version of Thunderbird, or some other country
in German?
- Are both the extension options window and the menu entries in English?

I can't think of many possible explanations.

I use the de-DE version supplied from www.mozilla.com, so no language
pack, but the native version.

Yes, they are. So is the description in the extensions window.

> I can't think of many possible explanations.

Any chance to "force" the language of QuickQuote, i.e. by adding a
setting to the options windows?

Thanks
Florian

I think you misunderstood; the point is, I made a mistake in the version
BEFORE 0.8 and fixed it in 0.8, meaning that there shouldn't be any
problem if 0.8 is the version with which you started.

I can't think of a logical reason why your version isn't in German, so
here's what I'll try: I've attached a copy of QuickQuote identical to
version 0.8, except that it only contains German (no English, Spanish,
Dutch, etc).  Uninstall your current version of QuickQuote, install this
one, and if you still see English after that, there's something really
fishy going on.

thanks for the fast help! However - if I try to install it, TB keeps
telling me, QuickQuote is not compatible with Thunderbird. Maybe you
made a SeaMonkey version?

Thanks

Heh heh...I added a line to install.rdf that says "Packaged especially
for Florian Effenberger" and forgot to close the RDF tag!  Whoops.
Here, try again.

hehe, that's nice, thanks a lot! It works now.

So, now on to the debugging: Anything I can do for you so you can find
where the problem lies?

Thanks

If you've still got the .xpi file you downloaded to install the first
version of QuickQuote, send it to me and I'll take a look at it.  Then
again, I don't know if the problem lies in the extension or something
with your configuration.  Nevertheless, I'd examine it.

sorry, I don't have it anymore, but it was from quickquote.mozdev.org,
version 0.8 for Thunderbird.

Is there anything else I can send in? Debug logs or something like that?

Thanks
Florian

Not really.  For now, I'll take this as a freak case rather than a bug
(other German Thunderbird users haven't been complaining recently).  If
I hear anything else about this language-switching thing, I'll let you know.

Thanks for offering to debug, though.
