Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xdg-user-dirs
XDG User Dirs(ex. ~/Desktop and ~/Music) are translatable on Launchpad[1]. However Launchpad efforts is not reflected in system on some languages. [1] https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/xdg-user- dirs/+pots/xdg-user-dirs/ Reason: xdg-user-dirs package has patch for old po files by CDBS simple patch system (debian/patches/90_rosetta_translations_update.patch), therefore generated binary deb package has two mo files. 1) Patch origin and old mo file via xdg-user-dirs package: /usr/share/locale/LL/LC_MESSAGES/xdg-user-dirs.mo 2) Launchpad translators effort via language-pack-gnome-LL-base: /usr/share/locale-langpack/LL/LC_MESSAGES/xdg-user-dirs.mo gettext system reads 1 rather than 2 under its priority rule. Solution: The reason why to use above patch system is that XDG User Dirs is created before install langpacks in installation process (LP #147657). We shuldn't drop this patch. I think that we can only regularly fetch translations from Launchpad and update patch file before "Alpha/Beta/RC/Final" releases. At this time the patch is very old. Last fetched time is 2008-10-08 (probably to fix LP #271466). ** Affects: xdg-user-dirs (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Needs to update 90_rosetta_translations_update.patch regularly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/428850 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to xdg-user-dirs in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
