i18n problems with eglibc

[Robert Brick]

Hello.

I'm trying to get the es_US.UTF-8 locale working with OE. I've 
included
nls support and IMAGE_LINGUAS="es_US.utf8" in my image and set
LANG=es_US.UTF-8 on the target, however I only get partial message
translation on the target when using coreutils's ls command. Here is 
the output from ls
when requesting the contents of a non-existent directory:

root@cpc3xx:/bin [1]# ls /nonexistent
ls: no se puede acceder a /nonexistent: No such file or directory
root@cpc3xx:/bin [2]#

I was expecting to see:
ls: no se puede acceder a /non: No existe el fichero o el directorio

The first part of the output has the es translation, but not the 
second
part.

Anyone have any idea why? Thanks in advance.

It sounds as though the message catalogs for glibc itself aren't getting
installed for some reason.  The first step would be to check whether
that's really the case, and then I guess the second step would be to
debug rootfs_ipk to find out why not.

I should have mentioned it in my initial mail.  I believe that the
glibc message catalog is installed correctly.

root@cpc3xx:/bin# ls -l /usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/
total 232
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 110655 jul 23 13:57 coreutils.mo
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 120808 jul 21 01:15 libc.mo
root@cpc3xx:/bin#

Is there any other file other than .../es/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo that make
up the message catalog?

Oh, very strange then.  That does look correct; as far as I know libc.mo
is the only file you should need to get localised output from glibc.

What does the output from "strace -f ls /nonexistent" look like?

Here you go.  After reviewing this output, I'm still at a loss...
