number_to_human_size with fallback to english
This issue is related to issue http://rails.lighthouseapp.com/p...
If used different locale from English, helper number_to_human_size does not work out of the box which is from my point of view unfortunate situation.
Here is the patch which will fallback to default English language when locale file is not provided.

Sven Fuchs- State changed from hold to wontfix
Closing this as wontfix for now. See the discussion on the rails-i18n group for explanation: http://groups.google.com/group/rails-i18n/browse_thread/thread/3878...
The gist of it is: Rails I18n requires the user to provide necessary translations in order to make locales other than :en work. In this case this can easily be done by
- adding translations manually
- adding translations from http://github.com/svenfuchs/rails-i18n
- adding fallback support through a plugin such as Globalize 2, http://github.com/joshmh/globalize2
We're considering to include fallback support to the I18n gem as an optional module that people can include. Rails might then add an environment config option to make that really easy. Should investigate existing locale fallback solution other than Globalize2 though.
