Hi,
since i translated some PO files recently, i had a look at
http://i18n.debian.net/compendia/po/xx.I found pretty "fat" PO-Files accompanied by .log files. Having a glance at the (German) logfile i found - about fifteen files without or with a wrong charset specified (with the consequence of removing them from the compilation), - more than 400 files with a charset different from UTF-8, - more than 1000 remarks about escape sequences that should not appear in i18n messages. How serious are these errors and warnings? Of course, fixing the po-files would have advantages from the technicians' point of view: * the daily build would be faster because of less error processing, * smaller logfile because of less error messages, * less need to convert files on the fly, * less power consumption ... I know that i should »RTFM«. What do you think about the measures against the gettext complaints and their degree of efficiency?- fixing header and encoding (plus review and finishing partial translations)
- filing bug reports related to the escape sequences Should they be postponed because there are i18n/l10n issues with higher priority?
