Public bug reported: The online accounts UI loads the plugins integration from some .application files. Those are not translated, not translatable.
What needs to be done, is: - rename the .application in .application.in - ensuring that upstream have an application.in files with translatable tags (using _, as in <_description>I want to be translated</_description>). Example [1] - add a <translations> tag containing the upstream domain - then, at build time: 1. Running intltool-extract files.applications.in so that it gets merged into a files.applications.in.h file. If you are using intltool already in your build system (and you probably are), this should be happening already and you can skip to step 2. 2. Including the .in file somewhere in the build system (like po/POTFILES.in for Python apps and Makefiles.am for C/vala apps) so that it's merged into the .pot file. In Python, it's just a matter of adding it as an extra line to the po/POTFILES.in file (example [2]): [gettext/xml]data/gwibber.application.in 3. And running intltool-merge --no-translations -x -u foo.applications.in foo.application to create the xml upstream file which is shipped - online-account (the g-c-c plugin) should be patched to load them, looking at the <translations> tag and gettext (package, string) [1] http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~dpm/+junk/testintl/view/head:/data/gwibber.application.in [2] http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~dpm/+junk/testintl/view/head:/po/POTFILES.in ** Affects: empathy Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: gwibber Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: online-accounts-gnome-control-center Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: shotwell Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: unity-lens-gdocs Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: unity-lens-photos Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: empathy (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: Confirmed ** Affects: gnome-control-center-signon (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: Confirmed ** Affects: gwibber (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: Confirmed ** Affects: shotwell (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: Confirmed ** Affects: unity-lens-photos (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: Confirmed ** Affects: unity-scope-gdocs (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: Confirmed ** Affects: empathy (Ubuntu Quantal) Importance: High Status: Confirmed ** Affects: gnome-control-center-signon (Ubuntu Quantal) Importance: High Status: Confirmed ** Affects: gwibber (Ubuntu Quantal) Importance: High Status: Confirmed ** Affects: shotwell (Ubuntu Quantal) Importance: High Status: Confirmed ** Affects: unity-lens-photos (Ubuntu Quantal) Importance: High Status: Confirmed ** Affects: unity-scope-gdocs (Ubuntu Quantal) Importance: High Status: Confirmed ** Also affects: gwibber (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: unity-lens-photos (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: unity-scope-gdocs (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: empathy (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: empathy Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: online-accounts-gnome-control-center Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: gwibber Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: unity-lens-photos Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: unity-lens-gdocs Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: shotwell (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: shotwell Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Summary changed: -
