I originally used po4a on lenny, 0.34-2. Because www-master runs etch, it uses 0.29-1etch1. Updating po4a on www-master to the backported version is considered potentially harmful, because other documentation might break. The good news: We use a "custom" Docbook.pm file under release-notes/lib/Locale/Po4a/, which is only used for that document! AFAIK, it's compatible with both forementioned versions. >From the Makefile: #UPDATEPO=PERLLIB=lib/ po4a-updatepo --previous --format docbook UPDATEPO=PERLLIB=lib/ po4a-updatepo --format docbook TRANSLATE=PERLLIB=lib/ po4a-translate --format docbook --keep 0 We cannot use --previous in the Makefile, because 0.29-1etch1 doesn't support it, but feel free to use it for your local copy of the release notes, if you have a newer po4a. I have not yet experienced any problems, if translators make use of --previous. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
