[Freeipa-devel] [PATCH] 698 Translate exception messages

[Rob Crittenden]

Pavel mentioned this morning that translations didn't seem to be 
working. I remembered that I did some things on the cli so I re-tested. 
Turned out that exceptions aren't being translated.

I'm not at all sure this patch does the right thing, so take it with a 
grain of salt. What it does is translates the message before stuffing it 
into the exception.

Note that this will also translate messages returned via XML-RPC so I 
wonder if we need to force LANG to en_US.UTF-8 there.

In any case, this seems to fix the client side anyway. I'm open to 
criticism on this one.

To test do something like:

$ kinit admin
$ export LANG=es_US.UTF-8
$ ipa user-add --first=Kermit --last=Frog kfrog
$ ipa user-add --first=Kermit --last=Frog kfrog

You should get a DuplicateEntry() response in Spanish.
