Bug Description
Impact: The translations are missing from the package tuxpaint-data, affecting all international users.
Cause: Tuxpaint was built for the Lucid cycle while it was still in main, so its translations were stripped to go to langpacks.
Then it was demoted to universe and never rebuilt, so its translations are missing from the current package in the repos.
Development version fix: The problem has been fixed for Maverick by just rebuilding the package. No source code changes were necessary.
Stable version patch: A simple version bump and a rebuild are needed, no other source or packaging changes are necessary.
TEST CASE: Run tuxpaint under any locale other than English. The translations aren't there so an English environment will still be shown.
A fixed package for Lucid has been uploaded to https:/
Only the version number has been changed, so no regressions are expected.
The original bug report follows:

Binary package hint: tuxpaint
Running tuxpaint --lang finnish did not show any Finnish messages. The package file downloaded from the Ubuntu repository seems to be missing localization files, since the following command yields no output:
ar p /var/cache/
I recompiled the tuxpaint source package myself, and the resulting deb file does include localization files:
ar p tuxpaint-
drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2010-01-06 19:07 ./usr/share/locale/
drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2010-01-06 19:07 ./usr/share/
drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2010-01-06 19:07 ./usr/share/
-rw-r--r-- root/root 11332 2010-01-06 19:07 ./usr/share/
drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2010-01-06 19:07 ./usr/share/
drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2010-01-06 19:07 ./usr/share/
-rw-r--r-- root/root 1201 2010-01-06 19:07 ./usr/share/
(etc)
Installing thisself-compiled package makes the Finnish messages appear when I run tuxpaint --lang finnish. (Then tuxpaint also hangs on quitting, but that is likely an unrelated problem.)

Same for me in edubuntu lucid 10.04 in the dominican republic (es_DO). I tried all for me possible ways (hints of the readme or faq file, es_ES, spanish....) without success.
