Yes, that's the alternative I had in mind. > Do you have any positives or negatives we should consider before deciding > whether to opt these in to language packs? > > https://trello.com/c/R7JSYTT8/45-use-ubuntu-langpacks-for-gnome-universe Wasn't aware of that card. I have no strong opinion on the topic. If I recall it correctly, the packages where we currently make use of "X -Ubuntu-Use-Langpack: yes" are packages which were previously in main, and thus we had existing Ubuntu only translations which we can keep making use of that way. But I don't see anything which prevents us from enabling the langpacks for more packages. As you already mentioned, backporting a change to 18.04 would be tricky. Maybe it would be wise to override dh_translations in bionic, and enable langpacks going forward. If enabling langpacks for new GNOME packages in 18.10, please remember that LP templates need to be created. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1779574 Title: Missing static translations in .desktop files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-translations/+bug/1779574/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
