TurboGears 1.1 + Kid + i18n

[Daniel Haus]

Hello all!

After moving one of my applications to TurboGears 1.1 to make it run
on Python 2.6 (somehow 1.0 didn't work) I have a problem with i18n
now. The applications still uses kid, so I checked that the config has
the at least following settings:

tg.defaultview = "kid"
session_filter.on = True
i18n.run_template_filter = True
i18n.default_locale = "en"

The compiled translations are in the appropriate places (i18n message
extraction & compilation vie the toolbox seems to work fine) and calls
to tg.i18n.get_locale() inside my templates delivers the correct
value. Still, the static strings inside of my kid-templates won't be
translated at all.

What could be the problem here? Maybe I'm just missing a configuration
option? Or is there a change (maybe regarding to the move to Genshi in
1.1) I have overseen, that needs special attention? What else could I
check?

Thank you!
Daniel

Yes, Python .26 is only supported by TG 1.1.

I just checked this. It seems that the new template engine option
loading introduced an unintended change, which breaks i18n for kid, if
you configure it according to the documentation.

For now, you need to add

kid.i18n.run_template_filter = True

to your configuration as well, and things should work again. We will fix
this in the next 1.1 release [1] so that the old way of configuring
things works again.

This is fixed in SVN r6872 now. kid.i18n.run_template_filter now
defaults to True if i18n.run_template_filter is enabled and Kid is
available.

I.e. you can still turn off the translation filter for Kid templates
only, if you set i18n.run_template_filter to True and
kid.i18n.run_template_filter to False in your configuration.
