Re: Making a translation: po-file testing
From: Alvaro Tejero Cantero [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "LyX Users" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Making a translation: po-file testing Date: Sun, 22 Oct 2000 11:53:01 +0200 Hi, LyXers I have an improved version of es.po ready for testing. I have downloaded, configured, compiled and installed lyx-1.1.6cvs. As I don't have the slightest clue on how to incorporate my corrections, I have overwritten the previous es.po in the po directory with my own. I have recompiled and reinstalled. No trace of my po file when starting LyX: it seems to be using the old one. Please note that I have been configuring with the flags --with-lyxname=lyx-1.1.6cvs --prefix=/usr/local Anybody knows what to do? I would like to start committing my translation files asap, but I need to do some testing, thanks to all, -- Álvaro Tejero Cantero p42.org It's true that the old README file in po/ disappeared... The .po file is only used to record translation, you must - create a file named es.gmo using msgfmt (gettext msgfmt, not native one if it exists, so check that there exists a msgfmt executable in /usr/local/bin); shell command: msgfmt es.po creates a binary file named messages that you can rename as es.gmo t - if you have kept a record of the output of make install, a grep gmo should recall you wher to put it (here it reads e.g. for spanish, and lyxname=lyx-1.1.5: installing es.gmo as /usr/local/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/lyx-1.1.5.mo You only need these steps to check, no lyx rtebuild is needed. Beware that --with-lyxname=lyx-1.1.6cvs does not change the name of the executable, which is still lyx and not lyx-1.1.6cvs, so here I wrapped the make install step to protect the current lyx executable, which is in public use. -- Jean-Pierre
