Vorta: Vorta 0.7.0 is using German although device is set to English

Created on 7 Sep 2020  路  7Comments  路  Source: borgbase/vorta

Describe the bug
I have updated Vorta to the latest 0.7 release. My Mac is set to English as the primary language (see menu bar). German is setup as a secondary language. Vorta shows everything in German though, this did not happen with the release before 0.7.

I see. You are using "Austrian English", while our source language is US English. So it falls back to German in weird ways. See here.

I've renamed our source language to just en from en-US. For me this fixes the issue, even with en-AT.

Ah ok - thanks! I guess it's "Austrian English" because of the region setting 馃槄

Does this fix other languages also? My macOS keyboard/Input source is Dutch, and my system language is English. Vorta 0.7.1 gives me a German UI...

Logs please. German isn't hardcoded anywhere. Might be somewhere in your locales. Or an issue with Qt detecting it.
