Hi,
can you check the encoding of that language file if it is not as per the others so you have to change the encoding of that file

Check the language file of that where the dom is created for that dropdown...

I'm not sure what I did but I had the same issue in German and it went away miraculously. Rebuild the jslanguage files (or delete the directory in cache) and make sure that your /include/language/ru_ru_lang.php is encoded utf-8 without BOM.

Which Sugar version do you use? I will try to reproduce the error with your language pack.

Yes, I have the same problem in rc 5.1.

By pressing button Save, the curve file custom/include/language/ru_ru.lang.php is created. If in it fix fields all is displayed normally. I try in modules/Administration/Common.php:: save_custom_app_list_strings_contents to write down a line in Russian in a file. All is normal. Probably a array already corrupt before writting to the file.

The similar problem was with a theme of the letter. It was necessary in translateCharsetMIME to insert mb_internal_encoding (' UTF-8 '); Then all has worked.

 /**
         * translates a character set from one to another, and the into MIME-header friendly format
         */
        function translateCharsetMIME($string, $fromCharset, $toCharset='UTF-8', $encoding="B") {
                mb_internal_encoding('UTF-8');
                return mb_encode_mimeheader($string);
        }
