It seems like Transmission does not use gettext for the Qt GUI but instead uses Qt Linguist. There are already translations for a few languages but not many.
Not sure if it is possible to make translations available through Launchpad. The Transmission people will have to look into this and give a statement. ** Changed in: ubuntu-translations Status: New => Confirmed ** Tags removed: translation ** Tags added: i18n saucy ** Also affects: transmission Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to transmission in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1007744 Title: transmission-qt does not have translation Status in Transmission: New Status in Ubuntu Translations: Confirmed Status in “transmission” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: dword@dword-as4741g:~$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Release: 12.04 dword@dword-as4741g:~$ apt-cache policy transmission-qt transmission-qt: 已安装: 2.52-0ubuntu0.12.04.1 候选软件包:2.52-0ubuntu0.12.04.1 版本列表: *** 2.52-0ubuntu0.12.04.1 0 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/transmissionbt/ppa/ubuntu/ precise/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 2.51-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main amd64 Packages It seems that although transmission-gtk is well translated, transmission-qt is not translated at all.
