Leopard (10.5.6 specifically I think) has big problems with non-english character sets being used for the UI. Mine was set to Cymraeg/Welsh; immediatety upon setting this preference, and restarting, everything went crazy. It's beyond just fonts and lack of default apps - most apps crash on boot, though I didn't spot a pattern, if any.<BR/><BR/>Can't find an actual solution beyond being forced to use the latin alphabet.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17587696763918550030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22238331.post-89766630171174044732009-02-27T09:16:00.000+00:002009-02-27T09:16:00.000+00:00Thanks very much for the article.

I have the exact same problem, many things going wrong with my leopard install :( I was about to reinstall because of the pkg problem (like having no accessible fonts isn't enough), but you just saved me! Thankyou!<BR/><BR/>...So, did you ever sort out the inaccessible fonts? :P I'm off to trawl your other posts in search of an answer...Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17587696763918550030noreply@blogger.com
