16449	i18n_pattern URLs reversed from shell and tests have incorrect language prefix	Jakub Roztočil	nobody	"I've been trying out the new `i18n_patterns` from trunk and have run into the following issue:

The `django.core.urlresolvers.reverse()` function always returns `/en-us` as the language prefix for i18n URLs when it is called from a shell session or tests. I don't have `en-us` in my `settings.LANGUAGES` so requests to such URLs result in 404s.

After some digging I've found out that the above is probably just a symptom of another issue which is that the language specified in `settings.LANGUAGE_CODE` isn't automatically activated for shell sessions and when running tests:

{{{
$ ./manage.py shell
>>> from django.conf import settings
>>> settings.LANGUAGE_CODE
    'es'

>>> from django.utils import translation
>>> translation.get_language()
    'en-us'

>>> from django.core.urlresolvers import reverse
>>> reverse('test')
    '/en-us/'
}}}

I've also tried adding `en-us` as `settings.LANGUAGE_CODE` and to `settings.LANGUAGES`, after which I was able to run my tests, but there was another issue: the `get_language_info` template tag raises an exception when the language code is `en-us`, because it isn't defined in `django.conf.locale.LANG_INFO`:

{{{
$ ./manage.py shell
>>> from django.utils import translation
>>> translation.get_language_info('en-us')
