Resource Manager fails

Type
Wording/Translation
Severity
S4 - Minor
Status
closed
Project
MuseScore

Trying to download any updated translation via the Resource Manager fails repeatedly with "Failed, try again".
The corresponding files do get downloaded though, I see them in "%LOCALAPPDATA%\MuseScore\MuseScoreDevelopment\locale\"

Factory reset doesn't help

Copying the downloaded .qm files to overwrite the ones that are part of the nightly build results in the translations to be visible, but doesn't change the "Failed, try again" issue.

It's not the first time that you write something like this, and I'm not sure I understand. You should not have to modify the installation of the nightlies. Actually on some system like OSX, it will not be possible with the release, because of the signing.
Do you think there is a bug in the way we load the translation? Put aside problems with the palette tooltips, translations loaded via the resource manager should override the translations from the nightlies, actually the most recent of the two should be loaded. Is it the case? If not it's a bug and we need to address it separately.

There are 2 issues, this here talks about the error you get when trying to download a new translation via the Resource manager.
The other issue is that these translation don't override the ones from the nightly build, and I reported this earlier, not in the issue tracker though, http://musescore.org/node/22982#comment-89387. Guess I should make it an issue then

Edit: see #23544: New translations loaded via Resource Manager don't override existing ones
