            Bug ID: 47804
           Summary: Make adding Windows locales more scalable
           Product: Wine-Testbot
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: unknown
          Assignee: wine-bugs at winehq.org
          Reporter: fgouget at codeweavers.com
      Distribution: ---

Currently adding a new Windows locale available for testing requires:
1. Manually installing the language on Windows, either through the Windows
Update mechanism for Windows < 10, or through the new (cumbersome) Windows 10
interface.
2. Manually creating a new VM object through the web interface.
3. Manually creating a live snapshot. (*)

It also has consequences:
4. On the VM selection page of the submit job procedure this creates a new line
for the VM. So if all 30+ Windows languages for each of the 3 VMs where that's
possible we would be looking at 90+ lines.
5. On the Activity page there is one column per VM. That page would get way to
big to be usable.


(*) LibvirtTool is no able to automatically change the Windows VM locale and
create the appropriate live snapshot. So issue 3 is solved. Four more to go!
