[Freeciv-Dev] [patch #4650] Split single input xx.po file into translations/*/xx.po

[Jacob Nevins]

Follow-up Comment #10, patch #4650 (project freeciv):

> This ticket is for (a) redoing the S2_4 import 
I've now done this. This also deals with the backlog of S2_4 updates that I
had not yet brought to later branches; all newer branches that have not yet
been worked on should now have the latest available translations from older
ones.

(If some translator had already started working on S2_5 and/or trunk before
this giant update, it's benign; they can ignore it as if it were a regular
"make update-po", and deal with the superfluous obsolete strings in their own
way, as pl and fr will already have had to.)

Haven't got this yet. Attached for reference is the script I used for this
job: a slight formalisation of comment #1, but has external dependencies
making it unsuitable for checkin.

You're right, what I described is not what we want. Fortunately, I was lying
:) If a msgid appears in both core and extended nations, this procedure puts
the translation in both resulting po-files.

But is that what we want? It's possible that a few strings (governor titles)
are needed for both core nations and extended nations.

[Freeciv-Dev] [patch #4650] Split single input xx.po file into translations/*/xx.po

[Jacob Nevins]

Follow-up Comment #1, patch #4650 (project freeciv):

Hacky manual procedure I've got so far (starting from ca-24.po which is the
monolithic S2_4 ca.po:


make freeciv/freeciv.pot, nations/freeciv-nations.pot,
ruledit/freeciv-ruledit.pot
msgmerge ca-24.po freeciv/freeciv.pot >tmp-freeciv-full-ca.po
msgmerge ca-24.po nations/freeciv-nations.pot | msgattrib --no-obsolete
>nations-ca.po
msgmerge ca-24.po ruledit/freeciv-ruledit.pot | msgattrib --no-obsolete
>ruledit-ca.po
# needed because msgattrib --ignore-file only takes 1 argument
msgcat nations-ca.po ruledit-ca.po >tmp-noncore-ca.po
msgattrib --obsolete tmp-freeciv-full-ca.po | msgattrib
--ignore-file=tmp-noncore-ca.po --set-obsolete | msgattrib --only-obsolete
>tmp-obsolete-ca.po
msgattrib --no-obsolete tmp-freeciv-full-ca.po | msgcat - tmp-obsolete-ca.po
>freeciv-ca.po
rm tmp-freeciv-full-ca.po tmp-noncore-ca.po tmp-obsolete-ca.po


I believe this ends up with every source translation in exactly one place,
with obsolete translations with no other home ending up in freeciv-ca.po.


freeciv-ca: 85%: 5354 translated, 571 fuzzy, 371 untranslated.
nations-ca: 97.6%: 1795 translated, 22 fuzzy, 22 untranslated.
ruledit-ca: 24%: 5 translated, 10 fuzzy, 6 untranslated.

This ticket is for (a) redoing the S2_4 import and ideally (b) checking in a
semi-automated procedure (script or something) which will let us do it again 
(allowing further imports from S2_4, or imports from a translator who prefers
to work on a single merged .po file).
