[MLZ] multi-lingual entries stopped working properly after an upgrade

I have recently shifted from Ubuntu 13.10 to Debian 7.4. Although the OS transition went smoothly, I have realised that some of the MLZ functionality no longer works the way it used to. I have first experienced the problem on Iceweasel 24, then installed Iceweasel 27 and Firefox 27, but that did not help.

The multi-lingual entries that used to work and export beautiful multi-lingual bibliographies, now only produce exported bibliographies in one language. As I have neither changed the settings nor the entries themselves, the problem is most likely in the software. Here is an example of a problematic test entry exported in MLZ Chicago manual of style:

葛覺智, and 隔离红. 意書. London: Lundun, 1998.

I expect the names and the book title to be accompanied by transliteration, but it is not shown.

Here's the entry exported to Bibliontology RDF:

And here is a screenshot of my settings screen: http://postimg.org/image/za9luomp5/

It is possible that my problems may be related to the recent update of MLZ to 4.0.18m431, but unfortunately I cannot tell now whether I made this upgrade before or after the transition to Debian.

I hope this makes sense. I will be happy to provide supplementary information, if needed.
  • Did you solve your problem? I have a pretty similar one. At least for the symptoms, but I made no change on my PC. I am on windows, working with words. I hope somebody has a solution...
  • The was a bug in the latest upgrade. My apologies.

    Please update MLZ and let us know how you fare.
  • Thank you for your answer.
    Everythings came back after the new update. It seems to work perfectly now.
    Thank you for your great job. You saved my day.
  • @didierdavin:

    On closer inspection, I found that multilingual rendering was still broken for ordinary fields: it has also now been fixed, in the latest update.
  • Thank you, Frank, everything works nicely after today's upgrade!
