Hello there! I've started to move Transifex from Debian Lenny translation messages (Gondwana) to Debian Squeeze (Hyperborea?). Although I'm writing scripts to automate the work as much as possible, the time required for the whole move is huge and I really can't tell when it'll be finished. As a result, translations on Transifex should be halted until the move has been achieved.
Currently I've updated most of LXDE components, most of Gnome applications and few other applications. To retrieve the exact list, either order the Transifex resources by date or browse the SVN history: http://svn.gna.org/viewcvs/doudoulinux/?view=log I manage to merge the previous Transifex translations with the newest translations available from the official Debian packages, for every resource and every language. The main issue is that many new PO files don't get uploaded onto Transifex because they contain mistakes. These mistakes are always due to plural forms, the possible reasons are: * the plural specification is missing in file header * the number of plural forms of a translated message doesn't match the header specification (eg. 6 plural forms instead of 4) * formatting characters like %d are missing either in the singular form or in the plural form(s) Fixing these files is a manual operation and takes a lot of time. If you're willing to help, I'd be glad. What you need to do is to: * get the latest SVN lang tree with an SVN client [1] * cd into doudoulinux/lang/trunk/ * run the new script 'check-pofiles' to list the erroneous files * fix the files of the newly updated resources of Transifex (no need to bother with other resources yet) * send these files back to me if you can't commit on SVN I believe these mistakes are partly due to bogus PO file editors.
