Hi,

regarding your email I thought about something.

Because I use more than the standard Ubuntu software repositories I
tried the following:

I inserted a Ubuntu Karmic Koala 32bit CDrom and booted the OS in english

  'apt-cache search aircrack'

gave me no results.

I had to enable 'universe repository' first, then aircrack-ng did show
up in the search result:

  'aircrack-ng - wireless WEP/WPA cracking utilities'

As this is an older release of the Ubuntu Karmic ISO file I used
'apt-get upgrade' but the description did not change.

Having one Debian 5 Lenny amd64 server in german running I quickly
checked the description there, but it is the same as in Ubuntu
(Linux nomaam 2.6.26-1-amd64 #1 SMP Fri Mar 13 17:46:45 UTC 2009 x86_64
GNU/Linux):

  'aircrack-ng - WEP/WPA-Knacker'

Now, to make sure, booting the Karmic Koala in german I noticed the same
translation here, where 'Knacker' is often referred in english as
'cracker',
which does not sound an appropriate description for honorable usage of
this application.

Hope that helps.

Kind regards,
Andreas.

Hi,

I am just trying to understand how those Debian package descriptions
which are shown when using apt-cache are translated in Ubuntu. Naively I
assume that these package descriptions are imported from ddtp.debian.net
into Launchpad, can be translated or adapted in Launchpad an these
Launchpad translations will be delivered to the users via language
packs.Is this idea correct or am I totally wrong? If I am wrong I would
like to know how this process works.

They are imported from ddtp to the https://translations.launchpad.net/ddtp-ubuntu/ubuntu project, this is true. The translations are however not part of the language packs, but are separately uploaded to the package repository servers. Anything you translate in the project above, you should see in the next release translated.
Currently we - the German Ubuntu Translators - have this problem: a user
reported that the German translation of a package translation which are
shown by apt-cache is inappropriate. While taking a closer look on this
issue we found out two things:

(1) The translation the user told us can't be found on Launchpad. The
user criticises that in the package description of aircrack-ng the term
"WEP/WPA-Knacker" is used. Although this seems to be the case in
ddtp.debian.net the translation on Launchpad [1] is different and
doesn't contain "Knacker".

It does, just use the correct search term:
https://translations.launchpad.net/ddtp-ubuntu/ubuntu/+pots/ddtp-ubuntu-universe/de/+translate?batch=10&show=all&search=knacker

If you feel a bit lost in these templates, you might want to take a look at the ubuntu-hu team's pet project http://nightmonkey.ubuntu.hu/ which should help a lot in such cases - for example, finding all the German translations of aircrack-ng's descriptions took about 5 seconds for me ;). See also the wiki page of the Nightmonkey project: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Nightmonkey

(2) On our machines the package description are not translated at all. I
verified this on two machines running Jaunty and apt-cache only shows
English package descriptions. How can it happen that some users have
translated package descriptions and others not?

Sometimes I see this too, but an apt-get update command usually helps. I have no idea why is this happening...

Regards
Gabor Kelemen
Maybe somebody of you can help us understanding (and hopefully fixing)
this problem. I would be really grateful for some help. Thanks in
advance.

Cheers, Jochen

Thanks to Gabor Kelemen for already covering most of the above points
in his mail. Personally I'm not happy with the huge termplate for the
translation, but its the best we have at this point. There is a
launchpad spec pending to break it down and move the translation into
each individual package as a additional "ddtp-description .pot" (or
something). But that seems to be not progressing. 

Nightmonkey is wonderful to help with organizing the strings, I would
recommend anyone doing package description translations to use it :)

It will download the required translation data for your locale on
apt-get update. So if you run with german locales all the time you
should have it (german locales system-wide that is). The possible
failures I can see:
 - german is not the system-wide language (just a gdm setting)

If you could mail me the output of:
$ cat /etc/default/locale
$ ls /var/lib/apt/lists/*Translation*
that would help me diagnosing the problem.

Cheers,
 Michael
