which one exactly? Hopefully, you don't want to play hide and seek

Do you know the number or any detail?

I haven't looked at the patch, but I tried to rebuild popt-1.12-1 as
you suggested.  It did, however, NOT help.  (See my bugzilla comment
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=102254#c25 for
details.)

Either its not fixed, or I miss something.


What you miss is that there are 2 strings in popt.h, which are added  
to application

tables, but need to use the "popt" domain.

The patch compares msgid values and uses dgettext in the "popt"  
domain when

encountered.

Technically, since the strings are compiled into application popt  
tables, the strings
should be handled by the application, not popt. But all depends on  
whether the 2

occurences of N_(...) are seen when generating application PO tables.

The files test3.c, popint.c and system.h are missing the license  
header.
AFAIK these files were introduced by the patch mentioned in bug  
#178413.




Actually, only poptint.c was added, the other two have never had  
copyright text associated.


Since I don't know the copyright intent of any of the above, nor do I  
wish to make

the effort to inquire, I leave exactly as is.


Further comments or hints?

On what?


On the weather, how the coffee tastes, whether the cookies are well  
but

mainly to my e-mail ;)



Weather hinting at autumn, coffee freshly brewed, lemon pound cake  
instead of cookies,
and there's at least one other old popt "bug" report in bugzilla  
misassigned to rpm.

Good evening all,

I'll get the popt maintainer at Fedora and Panu from Red Hat is  
likely to
get co-maintainer once the package is reviewed. And for reviewing a  
package
there should be no open bug reports at all, so I'm walking through  
these:


 - Bugzilla Bug 102254: popt messages need explicit domain with  
dgettext()

   https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=102254
   -> As per http://rpm5.org/cvs/chngview?cn=8187, this bug report  
IMHO

The "partially solved" is waiting for your confirmation (or not). I  
gave you the patch.


 - Bugzilla Bug 135428: popt : -help outputs unaligned  
descriptions, in

   case of  != 
   https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=135428
   -> I would agree, it isn't possible to solve this bug report  
from the

   logical way Hu Zheng if this problem exists in latest popt, too.



I quote comment #12 from 2007-02-08:

If not fixed, I'll also need some help getting a reproducer  
together.


I have also asked (repeatedly) whether the problem still exists. no  
clue.


I did insure that CY aligns correctly, Welsh UTF8 with wide  
characters, many

years ago. I can't fix what I can't see.


 - Bugzilla Bug 178413: none UTF-8 messages for GNOME applications
   https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=178413
   The patch was merged into HEAD, but License/Copyright for the newly
   added files is missing, one of the Fedora guys claimed about this.



What is the copyright issue? Claiming "claimed about this" helps  
nothing.


 - Bugzilla Bug 202061: Request for more user-friendly RPM  
documentation

   https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=202061
   IMHO this bug report is resolved, as I can't see such an issue in a
   current popt version; the user-friendly thing is IMHO rpm not popt.



Fixed.


Further comments or hints?
