Strange, it appears that if I launch "program" as follow (without
"--gettext-language fr" option), the GUI string is correctly translated
in French.

address@hidden:~/00-poubelle/ocaml-gettext-0.2.0/examples/program$ ./program 
--gettext-dir ../build/share/locale/  --my-name David 
Hello David

In fact, the translation works if I provide exact "fr_FR.UTF-8"
locale. Otherwise, exception Not_found is raised.

address@hidden:~/00-poubelle/ocaml-gettext-0.2.0/examples/program$ ./program 
--gettext-dir ../build/share/locale/ --gettext-language fr_FR.UTF-8 --my-name

Hello David

address@hidden:~/00-poubelle/ocaml-gettext-0.2.0/examples/program$ ./program 
--gettext-dir ../build/share/locale/ --gettext-language fr_FR --my-name David 
Fatal error: exception Not_found

address@hidden:~/00-poubelle/ocaml-gettext-0.2.0/examples/program$ ./program 
--gettext-dir ../build/share/locale/ --gettext-language fr --my-name David 
Fatal error: exception Not_found

Any explanation on this behaviour? I though that setting LANG=fr would
suffice. 

Best wishes,
d.
