GUI preferences dialog fails to open

[marisn]

When choosing a "settings" -> "preferences", only an error is printed in the command line. Tested with 7.0.0 on XP and Vista

Works for me with English locale on Windows 8. Is locale the problem?

[marisn]

It is caused by a faulty translation to Latvian language (shame on me). Issue is fixed in trunk with r64789

Leaving open, as r64789 needs to be backported to release branch.

Backported, closing.
