plachWould you please describe more completely the steps to reproduce this error? Also a list of the enabled modules would help.
Comment #2
tsvenson commentedOki, will try.
The site I am building will in the future be multilingual, but start with only English. Therefore I have enabled the Content translation and Locale modules so that I can set the content to English instead of Language neutral.
I have just reproduced this on a clean Drupal 7 RC3 by doing the following:
- Install with Standard profile
- Change Basic Page CT to Multilingual with translation
- Create a new Basic Page with menu
- Click the Translate button.
Then you should get the same error as in the original post.
I then tested by adding a second language, Swedish in my case. This time I didn't get the error. Thus it only seems to appear when only one language exists.
This is not a big problem since the error doesn't cause any problems and in my case only the administrator role will see the Translate button, at least until a second language is added.
Still, Drupal should be able to catch this since this is the only way I can set the language for a node. At least as far as I know.

plachOk, reproduced. The attached patch should fix the issue.

sivaji_ganesh_jojodae commentedNot sure whether this will really fix it but you need to use module_load_include() to add inc file.

Comment #10
plachmodule_load_include does not work with includes not belonging to modules
Comment #11
sivaji_ganesh_jojodae commentedI followed the instructions in #2. It works good for me, could not reproduce any bug.
Comment #12
plach@sivaji:
I was able to reproduce it: the error happens because
language.incis included only if at least two languages are enabled, hence if one access the translation page and there is only one language enabledlanguage_negotiation_get_switch_links()won't be defined.Comment #13
plachHere is a simpletest that shows the issue. The test-only patch is supposed to fail to prove that the full patch correctly captures the bug. If the bot agrees this should be ready to go.

plachOk, someone please RTBC this.

marcingy commentedThis patch makes sense.
