This bug still exists in 10.04. This is a clean system install and a clean eric4 install using synaptic. Every time I start eric I get exactly the same warning messages that were reported by Scott Kitterman on 2009-04-21. If I start eric and supply a file name it does run after giving the warnings and it may be working ok. I'm not yet experienced enough with all its functions to know how to test them but the warning messages are disconcerting. When it exits it gives "Segmentation fault", which I believe is a known qt problem and unrelated to the present bug.

A search for the files that the messages are complaining about (e.g., *eric4_en_US*) indicates they are not present anywhere on the system.

Googling for these errors shows they go back a few years and have been complained about many times. Responses from Detlev Offenbachs, who was apparently the maintainer and may still be, say they will be fixed in the next release, which was 4.1-something. But we're now on 4.4.2-1 and they are still there.

I am changing the status back to "New" as per the comments of Jonathan Thomas.
