As (creation) is translated I ran into a freaking issue where my workflow was built in a development environment which default language was french then deployed via Features on a test environment which default language was english. My workflow was completely broken and workflow UI was quite strange. I fixed the (creation) state name in the database then everything is now running.

Digging a bit in the code, I found many places where tests are made direclty on state translated name instead of its sysid. I think this should be changed to be more reliable.

For example :

$min = $state->status == t('(creation)') ? 1 : 2;

should be

$min = $state->sysid == WORKFLOW_CREATION ? 1 : 2;

If you'll try this patch out and let me know if it works. If so, I'll commit it to dev.

Great! Patch applies to latest dev 2012-Apr-05

In my case i put workflows into features at a local site and applied it to a dev site. While the admin on my local site uses english language the acting user at dev uses german language. It now appears that node stay at workflow status "(creation)" which is "(Erstellung)" in german which doesn't make sense to the whole workflow.

For me this patch works.
