Re: Ubuntu vs. Debian translations

I will send mvo a message or import the latest translation from Rosetta or do it myself. About Debian you should contact the maintainer. every package should use any primary system for translation: Rosetta or Pootle or svn/cvs or only http po download + wishlist bug report - depending on author choice ... but every packager/maintainer and translator should know about this translation system ... so every translation is updated in upstream ... and there is possibility to include distribution specific strings in upstream - like e.g. Ubuntu related strings in debian-installer big po file, which are never used in Debian, but strings are ready for Ubuntu (and one translator can translate strings only once) You can export po files from Rosetta too. AFAIK access using a bzr repo is a long term goal of Rosetta. yes, i know about exporting po files, i used export sometime - but why is so hard to provide clean http access to po files (only for download) ??? are po files secret??? P.S. sorry for cross-posting, but we can (???) resolve many translations, so only some fuzzy strings will remain in both distributions ... or is it the package maintainer problem? or upstream author? Sorry, I did not understand this. i mean if maintainer can import all translations from Rosetta to Debian ... so untranslated Debian strings could be translated after import - and maybe some fuzzy strings remain ... but better solution is cooperation between upstream and maintainer and SOME translation backend system ... -- 5o Peter.Mann at tuke.sk -- ubuntu-translators mailing list ubuntu-translators@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-translators
