Could we imagine that, as it is the case with Moodle, this script becomes part of the upgrade.php script and automatically upgrade the langpack to the latest version of the release at each upgrade?
The upgrade script would look at the installed langpacks and upgrade them with the latest version. Langpacks (I am talking about the French's one at least) are evolving with the feedback of users pointing out mistranslation or grammar/spelling mistakes. So it is good to update the pack on one's distro time to time. The upgrade.php could do this.

This cli script will make that easier. This this cli does: 1) Install / update langpacks by listing the languages by their code, eg de = German, fr = French like so sudo -u www-data php admin/cli/sync_langpacks.php -l=de,fr This will make a backup of the existing language (if exists) into the dataroot langpacks_backup directory. 2) If you don't want to make backups then add the -b=false flag, eg sudo -u www-data php admin/cli/sync_langpacks.php -l=de,fr -b=false 3) If you need to rollback the backups you can use the -r=true flag, eg sudo -u www-data php admin/cli/sync_langpacks.php -l=de,fr -r=true To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mahara/+bug/1625863/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~mahara-contributors Post to : mahara-contributors@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~mahara-contributors More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
