1). I tried it in the assistant, but I cannot choose any language. The assistant shows me only the point 'autodetect' but no other language so I can only work with the default language which is english.
2.) Normally a second way is to choose the language in the preferences of openlp - but here I can also find only the point "auto detect".
I could find all language files In my linux folder /usr/share/openlp/i18n but it seems that openlp doesn't use this files or cannot read it.
Hi, I had the same problem. In debug log I found, that openlp seeks the language files in "/usr/share/gnome/openlp/i18n" but not in "/usr/share/openlp/i18n". So i copied the files to "/usr/share/gnome/openlp/i18n" an now openlp starts in german (for me). I hope this helps.
I figured it out. There's an issue with the library that OpenLP uses to determine the paths, and OpenLP needs to read the paths slightly differently. I've created an issue on our issue tracker: https://gitlab.com/openlp/openlp/-/issues/1229

Hi, could you explain a little more detail. Where are you trying to change the language?

Hrm, that is interesting, I'll have to take a look.

Thanks for the detail, @be_re
That's weird. I don't know why Gnome is forcing itself into OpenLP's paths.

Thank you that works for me.
