GTK internationalization Problem

Hi Everyone,

I am facing  a problem for converting  English to oriya language

#include <libintl.h>
#include <locale.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main(void)
   {
     setlocale( LC_ALL, "" );
     bindtextdomain( "hello", "/usr/share/locale" );
     textdomain( "hello" );
     printf( gettext( "Hello, world!\n" ) );
     exit(0);
       }

the following commands i have use to coonvert

gcc -o hello hello.c
xgettext -d hello -s -o hello.pot hello.c
msginit -l or_IN -o oriya.po -i hello.pot
msgfmt -c -v -o hello.mo oriya.po
sudo mkdir -p /usr/share/locale/or_IN/LC_MESSAGES

sudo cp hello.mo /usr/share/locale/or_IN/LC_MESSAGES
export LANG=or_IN
gcc -o hello hello.c
./hello

##########oriya.po  ####

#: hello.c:10
msgid "Hello, world!\n"
msgstr "ନମସ୍କାର\n"

the output i am getting is the same Hello world but the actual output should be "ନମସ୍କାର\n"

Re: GTK internationalization Problem

Have you enabled the locale "or_IN" on the system? See the wiki page.

Alternatively, you could change the language in your example to something that is already enabled.
