Bug Description
Maverick.
Yelp's home page is the Ubuntu Help Center.
On its left (left-to-right langs) is a set of links to topics. Each link is supposed to be translated. And, each topic, when clicked, is supposed to be translated.
"Assistive Tools" link and topic display in English when launched in zh_CN locale with language-
DESCRIPTION
To find the path to the localized Assistive Tools top-level file (in zh_CN), Yelp looks here:
/usr/share/
This link is installed by gnome-user-
PART ONE
The link above *should* point here:
/usr/share/
That file ^^^ is the actual omf file that yelp uses to find the path to the localized Assistive Tools topic file.
That file *should* be installed by language-
PART TWO
The actual localized content should be installed by language-
So, I think language-
- omf file
- localized content
I also tested fr_FR with the same results, so my guess is this is a systemic issue.
PLEASE NOTE: a new version of the language-
ALSO: This is the one topic on the yelp front page that is NOT provided by ubuntu-docs.

Ah, I see the problem. Due to the rather weird way how static translations are retrieved from Soyuz, we currently only get GNOME help translations for packages which actually built in the respective release. gnome-user-guide was built last in lucid, thus maverick's and natty's language packs don't have translations from it.
Once this is fixed in langpack-o-matic, the next complete (including -base) langpack update will have this fixed. I'll add a representative language pack task to track this (using -zh, as it's the one that Kyle is most interested in).
