gsettings-desktop schemas

2010-12-20 Thread Mario Blättermann
Hi all,

some months ago the gsettings-desktop-schemas module was added to the
Damned Lies pages. It rests in peace since, because the status view
shows zero strings from the beginning. The command »intltool-update«
cannot detect any translatable strings.

The file POTFILES.in shows entries like the following:

schemas/org.gnome.desktop.default-applications.gschema.xml

I've tried to prepend a [type: gettext/xml] to each line, but it doesn't
work. Even when I change

descriptionWhether the on-screen keyboard is turned on./description

to

_descriptionWhether the on-screen keyboard is turned
on./_description

it doesn't work not yet. What's the matter here? Which prerequisites are
needed to make it work? It's a pity that we have a module which seems to
be important (otherwise Andre hadn't asked to add it) and we cannot
translate it.

Cheers,
Mario

First question is: Why should it be translated?

Currently it only contains scheme descriptions, and I don't know of any
user interface application that displays them.

Andre, if I remember correctly, you was the guy who had asked for add it
to the Damned Lies...? You should actually know why.

Of course it contents only scheme descriptions, as the module name
suggests. Scheme descriptions are displayed in gconf-editor, and it is
really important in my mind to have them localized, although some GTP
teams want to skip them. We have this tool for rarely used and not in
the UI available settings, and the localized scheme descriptions mark a
difference to other configuration databases. The human-readability is
the most important advantage of gconf-editor, and we should keep this by
providing descriptions in the native languages of the users.

Cheers,
Mario

gconf-editor is for gconf as the name suggests but these are GSettings
schema descriptions. I don't know if dconf-editor displays them but my
last knowledge about dconf-editor is that it is not intended to be
shipped to end-users in the current state.

Johannes

I think at that time I expected something like dconf-editor to be
available.

  Currently it only contains scheme descriptions, and I don't know of any
  user interface application that displays them.

This certainly applies for gconf scheme descriptions but I have no idea
if that app works with gsettings/dconf.

For the same reason we translated gconf keys description in past
years :)

IMHO 'cause they are documentation about how applications and system
works.

 Currently it only contains scheme descriptions, and I don't know of any
 user interface application that displays them.

Here is dconf-editor in dconf module, while currently it needs love. A
lot of love.

You cold take a look at gnome-shell module, I'm sure there are some
gsettings related messages in PO files here.

In the current gconf-editor it doesn't work, but the dconf-editor (with
is mostly part of the dconf package, at least on my system) shows this
settings. There are *some* apps which have already migrated to
GSettings, such as brasero, nautilus-sendto, glabels etc. Those key
descriptions are displayed in dconf-editor.

You are right. The current v0.5.1 is still missing a menu bar, an
appropriate search function and some things more. Hope it becomes better
for the GNOME 3 release. The question is now: does it make sense to make
the keys translatable?

Cheers,
Mario
