Hi, I have a Dutch (nl) version of Suse Linux. If I invoke tar with a file to which it has no permission, I get a line like the following: /home> tar -cj -f backup-fh.bz2 hendrik/ tar: backup-fh.bz2: Kan niet open: Toegang geweigerd tar: Fout is niet herstelbaar: er wordt nu afgesloten This is not Dutch. ‘Kan niet open’ should be ‘Kan niet openen’. This seems to be caused because people wanted to be too smart, since a bit later it says ‘Kan niet savedir’, which is as strange, but ‘savedir’ is not translated. Maybe it should be ‘Kan savedir niet uitvoeren’. I’d send in a patch if there were an obvious way to get to the source files, but a few minutes of googling and browsing didn’t give me a file with those strings. Ah, there it is: http://www.translationproject.org/PO-files/nl/tar-1.14.nl.po. Sending this to them as well. And there is the patch. I’d have a lot more to change, I’ll contact the Dutch l10n team. Maybe a link from the official tar homepage there (well, to TP then) would not be a bad idea?
