Re: problem with translating totem
One thing that you do not mention is what distribution you are using to test your translations. From the previous e-mails, you grabbed the PO files for what we call HEAD (or trunk), which can be slightly different from, let's say, the totem version you get in Ubuntu 8.04. For example, in totem in Ubuntu 8.04, the original message could be something like Skip _me: but in the latest development version of Totem, it could have changed to Skip _me: (notice the space different). Thus, while a fully translated HEAD PO file is excellent for the new version of Ubuntu, for the current version some messages may not show up. Ok, I wanna translate ubuntu 8.04 Currently I am using HEAD, is this wrong? if yes, what version I must use?

The part Person XYZ wrote: is missing from the section you quote. It is important to include that section. Secondly, in the same original e-mail that you quote from, it describes a common work flow (you forgot to quote that paragraph), and actually gives the answer to the question you are asking here. It is very important to get these details correct, otherwise you may give the impression to be disrespectful.

Did the statistics of msgfmt -cv correspond to what you expect? Did you install it over the existing one? Are you running the version of the software that corresponds to the translation file you are working with? Some of these answers might help to find the problem here.

Thus, while a fully translated HEAD PO file is excellent for the new version of Ubuntu, for the current version some messages may not show up. If you really want to have all messages appear as you have with your .HEAD.po files, you may want to compile the latest version of GNOME, using JhBuild. However, this task is somewhat technical and requires resources in terms of disk space and bandwidth. The typical workflow for (some?) translators is to translate as much as possible, and near the string freeze, you install a test/beta version of a distribution (such as Ubuntu). Because the messages between what is in the PO file and the Linux distribution will be ~100% identical, you can do easy and comfortable testing/quality control. To sum up, continue translating and doing rough testing at the moment, and do the proper quality control near the string freeze time (around August/September?), using something like an Alpha version of Ubuntu of that time.
