Welsh language UI not included in 3.3RC4

I've downloaded the Windows version of LibreOffice 3.3RC4 cy-Welsh/Cymraeg but Welsh does not appear to have been included. Can we check this, please?

Options - Language Settings - Languages -User Interface.

It Includes English, Ukranian, Unknown, Uyghur, Uzbeck Latin, Venda, Vietnamese and Xhosa.

The Locale setting is Default - Welsh

Default languages for documents - Western - Welsh.

I'm using Windows 7 with the Welsh language pack.

Thanks

Hi Rhoslyn,

Not all languages are included into
LibO_3.3.0rc4_Win_x86_install_multi.exe. Welsh is in
LibO_3.3.0rc4_Win_x86_install_all_lang.exe.

Did you istall LibO_3.3.0rc4_Win_x86_install_all_lang.exe? Did you
select Welsh language pack at install?

I installed LibO_3.3.0rc4_Win_x86_install_all_lang.exe and found Welsh
translation in it.

Best regards,
Andras

I'll just step in.

I'm suspecting that maybe Rhoslyn downloaded
LibO_3.3.0rc4_Win_x86_helppack_cy.exe<http://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/testing/3.3.0-rc4/win/x86/LibO_3.3.0rc4_Win_x86_helppack_cy.exe>(the
localized help) and thought that it was a UI language pack. Am I
right?

If that's so, I guess that similar mistakes will disappear with a
lang-selector in the installer (I guess this will arrive, sooner or later).
Or, if such lang-selector is difficult to implement, maybe LibO_3.3 +
lang-pack + localized-help could be the way to go.

I usually dive into all options in every installer, so I installed my lang
from te very beginning. Most people will just always click "next", and
expect it to work (they already had to choose their lang in the download
page, so it seems to be a logical assumption).

Regards,
Mikel

Ok , I've downloaded the final 3.3 and read the installation instructions this time...

/If you choose a custom installation, you will see a dialog box that lets you choose what LibreOffice components to install. Open the dropdown boxes and make your choices./

/At this point, you can choose the language packs you want to be installed. English and the language of your operating system are selected by default. Also, all dictionaries are selected by default. You may want to select only those which you actually need. You can also deselect unwanted extensions. Make your selections, and press "Next"/.

Although I'm using Windows 7 with the Welsh language pack as noted above, the Welsh language pack was not ' selected by default' I had to manually set the language pack through the Custom Installation setting. It then worked.

There are some issues with the translation not being complete. The translation for 3.3 in OOo Pootle was complete but the version in Pavel's repository was not. OOo 3.3 will not appear in Welsh but I'm hoping that it will be picked up for 3.4.

Thanks

Thanks for your feedback. I guess Asturian, Occitan, Breton and other
languages that don't have proper support under Windows have the same
problem.

There are some issues with the translation not being complete. The
translation for 3.3 in OOo Pootle was complete but the version in Pavel's
repository was not. OOo 3.3 will not appear in Welsh but I'm hoping that it
will be picked up for 3.4.

Or even for 3.3.1, because it will be an l10n fix release, too.
