gimp-1.1.21: Problem with perl/po

2000-05-04 Thread Uwe Koloska

Hello,

I just tried to install gimp-1.1.21 -- an succeded!  Many thanks to all!

But there was a problem during "make install".  In plug-ins/perl/po it says:

  cp cs.gmo /opt/Gnome/share/locale/cs/LC_MESSAGES/gimp-perl.mo
  cp: cs.gmo: No such file or directory
  make: [install-po] Error 1 (ignored)

the same for all the other languages: de.gmo, fr.gmo,it.gmo, no.gmo, ru.gmo
By examining the problem I found that there are no *.gmo-files only the
*.po.  Is there a step missing that transforms the *.po into *.gmo?

And yes, I have gettext-0.10.35 and am working under linux-2.2.14,
glibc-2.1.2, gcc-2.95.2.

And no, I don't know wether this problem appeared in 1.1.20 or before
because normally I went away while gimp compiles and installs.  Only this
time I have been in front of my screen just in time when the make-errors
occured.

I have tried some perl-plugins and they work, but some have only the
english texts (don't know wether this is caused by the error or by lacking
any translation)

BTW: Who ist responsible for the tips and their translations?  Or the
translations for all the gimp?  Does a document exists, that describes the
common terms for some languages?  Like:
  layers   Ebenen ...
  colours  Farben ...

Yours
Uwe Koloska

 Seems so. Seems like the .gmo files were not generated and you have the
 necessary gettext tools not installed.


I have installed gettext from source (my distribution is from '95 ;-))
all is there especially msgfmt:

checking for LC_MESSAGES... (cached) yes
checking whether NLS is requested... yes
checking whether included gettext is requested... no
checking for libintl.h... (cached) yes
checking for gettext in libc... (cached) yes
checking for msgfmt... (cached) /usr/local/bin/msgfmt
checking for dcgettext... (cached) yes
checking for gmsgfmt... (cached) /usr/local/bin/msgfmt
checking for xgettext... (cached) /usr/local/bin/xgettext

in plug-ins/perl/po/Makefile{.PL} there is a rule for "%.gmo: %.po" and a
target "update-gmo" but it seems that the latter wasn't called ...

a manual "make update-gmo" in plug-ins/perl/po works just fine and produces
all the missing *.gmo-files


 BTW: Who ist responsible for the tips and their translations?

 Every one who wants to, send a patch and it will be surely applied
 by someone, most probably Sven. :)

I will look into it.

german
eine Übersetzung hat mich bei den Tips aber besonders gestört (vielleicht
auch noch woanders?)  "Selection" != "Selektion", viel besser ist "Auswahl"!
Vielleicht schaffe ich es in den nächsten Tagen mal einen Patch zu schreiben
/german

 Or the translations for all the gimp?

 The are in big parts Svens and my fault... :)

  Does a document exists, that describes
 the common terms for some languages?
 Like:   layers   Ebenen ...  
 colours  Farben ...


I suggest (and maybe volunteer) for a list of technical terms with their
proper translations.  On the first hand this will ease posting to this
newsgroup without restarting gimp with LC_ALL=C ;-))
