Package: translate-toolkit Version: 1.9.0-1 Severity: normal Tags: upstream patch
Hi! The translate-toolkit's po reading code ends up choking on translator comments that are UTF-8 encoded. A fix for the issue has been committed to upstream svn but there is no ETA for a release of the next version. http://bugs.locamotion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1951 Several of the example terminology files shipped with pootle include problematic translator comments hence fixing this is a pre-requisite to being able to ship a pootle package. The attached patch backports this fix to the translate-toolkit currently in Debian. I have been using a package containing this patch in testing out the current pootle packaging. cheers Stuart
