Problems with the Texts (in Ufopaedia)

hi!

I have the same problem here, under linux, ufo:ai version 2.1. these screenshots describe precisely what I get...
my system's default language is spanish. i've tried copying and pasting the english  ufoai.mo to both  /base/i18n/es and es_ES, no result.

I can't start the game with "LANG=<whatever>; ./ufo", the answer is always "there's no such  file or directory "  (I don't really know how to input this; I've tried with and without quote marks and brackets, no result)
but, in fact, "./ufo" does not start the game in my computer
LANG=en; ufoai starts the game, but doesn't change anything.

any help?

thanks!

edit: I have reinstalled, also tried "ufoai +set s_language en_US",  "ufoai +set s_language en", the answer is always the same:

--- Quote ---...could not set to language: <whatever>
--- End quote ---

maybe somehow I don't have the language packs properly installed, even if the ufoai.mo files exist?

the tutorials seem to work alright, always in english

Bernhardt:
Thanks for the help guys. I actually fixed it by reinstalling the game, how original. I didn't do anything differently, but seems like there went something wrong at the first time, obviously. After reinstalling, I ran "s_language en" and it accepted it.

I suppose the game tries to run with the language of the operating system. When you copy the ufoai.mo from the 'en' folder, remember to copy it to xx/LC_MESSAGES/. While installing on another computer with default Finnish language, creating a fi/LC_MESSAGES folder and pasting the file there helped.

yes, I've done this...

also tried "sudo" with everything, then tried changing the ownership of the files.
then tried building from source. also the latest SVN. no luck.

In the "old RC6 times" :) everything was fine.

I've noticed that right after the installation, when running the game,  one of the messages says "...using language: C". I've tried to edit the config.cfg file, now it says "...could not set to language: en".

I'm running an ubuntu feisty right now, but I had the same problem in edgy.


EDIT: I noticed that under windows the spanish text files are all translated... somehow in my linux the game cannot load the text files, no matter the language!  

it makes me sad, for this is one of the best linux games ever.

I'm sure somebody will come up with a solution for my problem ;)

ak:
somehow, the problem is solved.
