#8050 assigned bug

Saved queries and query templates messed up when switching locale

Description

This is hrev42901.

If you change your Locale prefs, saved queries and query templates may not work anymore. For example, create and save this query template:

Now change locale from English to German and restart Tracker.
-> The "after" and "contains" disappeared.

This is because the attribute _trk/qryinitattrs contains localized keywords. This is from another example, switching from German to English.

~/config/settings/Mail/Menu Links> catattr _trk/qryinitattrs /boot/home/config/settings/Mail/Menu\ Links/Same\ sender\ this\ week
/boot/home/config/settings/Mail/Menu Links/Same sender this week : message : BMessage(0x0) {
        menuSelection[0] = string("When", 5 bytes)
        menuSelection[1] = string("From", 5 bytes)
        subMenuSelection[0] = string("nach", 5 bytes)
        subMenuSelection[1] = string("enthält", 9 bytes)
        attrViewText[0] = string("last 7 days", 12 bytes)
        attrViewText[1] = string("", 1 bytes)
        logicalRelation = int32(0x0 or 0)
}

You see, "after" became "nach", and "contains" is now "enthält". Under an English locale, the find panel doesn't understand that anymore...

I meant that there is no "after" and "contains" when you open the saved query template again.
