gd_GB locale shows ga_IE translation on Windows 7

Checking the contents of:

MuseScoreNightly-2017-03-22-2237-2.1-d4ea241.7z
MuseScoreNightly-2017-03-22-2135-master-d19dd40.7z

and in the "locale" folder, I can find both musescore_gd.qm and mscore_ga.qm, although in the 3.0 folder, mscore_gd.qm is 70263 bytes while mscore_ga.qm is 70253 bytes, but are otherwise identical binaries:

cmp -l mscore_ga.qm mscore_gd.qm  | gawk '{printf "%08X %02X %02X\n", $1, strtonum(0$2), strtonum(0$3)}'
cmp: EOF on mscore_ga.qm
00011268 05 0F
0001126B FF FE
0001126D 02 0B

Also the instruments's qm on 3.0 nightly 7z are identical between _gd and _ga except the last few bytes:

cmp -l instruments_ga.qm instruments_gd.qm  | gawk '{printf "%08X %02X %02X\n", $1, strtonum(0$2), strtonum(0$3)}'
cmp: EOF on instruments_ga.qm
00011FFA 05 0F
00011FFD FF FE
00011FFF 02 0B

On the other hand, in the 2.1 locale folder, those files differ quite substantially.

So that seems very suspicious to me, probably 3.0 is not being packaged correctly.

FYI, this might be sortof related (I'm not sure because I don't know how install works) but I get the following error when trying to install 3.0 build via qtcreator: Failing to install from qtcreator because cannot find "/home/e/MuseScore/share/locale/mscore_gd.qm"

Did you update translations? Initially I took the ga translation and copied it to gd, thinking it a better start than empty.

thanks jojo. I ran lupdate...got a few errors maybe you could advice on: https://musescore.org/en/node/183741

although it did complete after 40 minutes. Then I ran lrelease, and then the install worked.

If you "took the ga translation and copied it to gd" then that would explain why OP says "presents me with content in Gaeilge (ga) instead of Gàidhlig (gd)".

So sounds like this is a task, not a bug.

Just update translations and you should be good. Before 2.1 laconic will integrate the translations

Please try to Help > Resource Manager and update the Scottish Gaelic language, then restart MuseScore. You can then translate, and wait 15 minutes, and update the language again to see the result of your translation.
For a realtime status of availability of the language resources, you can check https://travis-ci.org/musescore/tx2s3/builds where a new build is started every 5 minutes to take the strings from transifex and store them where the resource manager can get them.

Sorry for the confusion about gd vs ga. I guess it's a lesson learned, it's always better to start from scratch.

15 minutes, sorry

Wondering whether there will still be a dg_GB locale after an independance referendum? Anyway, MuseScore should be in the clear, using just gd ;-)
