Alberto Salvia Novella (es20490446e) has assigned this bug to you for cups in Ubuntu:
Currently, we export the cups template along the other .mo files in the language packs. This is however, not what the software expects, thus not useful at all. Cups expects the files to be in /usr/share/cups/locale/ll, in the file name format of cups_ll.po and in PO format[1]. The cups-common package ships the existing translations this way: http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/all/cups-common/filelist So, what we should do is: -stop distributing the .mo files -add cups to the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NonLanguagePackTranslationDeadline page, and export translations before Maverick is out. [1]: seems that while cups uses the po format for translation, it does not use gettext for using the translations in the code, but reads directly the po files. ** Affects: cups Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: hundredpapercuts Importance: Undecided Assignee: Paper Cuts Ninja (papercuts-ninja) Status: New ** Affects: ubuntu-translations Importance: Medium Status: Triaged ** Affects: cups (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium Status: Triaged ** Tags: i18n saucy -- Cups: Translation template should be in the binary package, not in the langpack https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/607141 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Paper Cuts Ninja, which is a bug assignee. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~papercuts-ninja Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~papercuts-ninja More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
