Re: Bug in Set Language when opened in ta_IN locale

I know what the bug is:

The po to strings conversion is wrong..

For example, consider this in .po file
#. LANG_FA_IR
#: po/tmp/xap_String_Id.h.h:297
msgid "Farsi"
msgstr "பார்சி"

This translation is mapped to File in ta-IN.strings file.
DLG_UP_File="பார்சி"

Farsi is a language but its translation is mapped to File. Clearly there is
something wrong in po2strings conversion.
Similarly, a lot of wrong conversions, I can see in ta-IN.strings file.

Thanks,
Vijay
