[Bug 707931] Re: info can not find Top node (it_IT.UTF-8 Italian locale)
To #25: You can also proceed this way: revert previous modifications (if any) you might have done following the link you provided. Then simply fix wrong char ^_ inside /usr/share/locale- langpack/it/LC_MESSAGES/texinfo.mo, with: sudo sed -i '/\^_/s/\^_/\x1f/' /usr/share/locale- langpack/it/LC_MESSAGES/texinfo.mo (then re-run sudo update-info-dir ). Workaround apart, the translation file got fixed and updated upstream (see texinfo version 5.x on savannah or package texinfo in Debian jessie/sid). But Ubuntu is using version 4.x, moreover the translation is not coming from upstream but from here: https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/+source/texinfo/+pots/texinfo/it/368/+translate (see old comments for suggestions made to translators) and is packaged in a cumulative translation package, here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/raring/all/language-pack-it-base/filelist . Therefore, I think you might try to suggest a new translation for id 368 as elrond and others did in the past, then wait for a fix. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/707931 Title: info can not find Top node (it_IT.UTF-8 Italian locale) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/texinfo/+bug/707931/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Trying to be of some usefulness for mainstream devs, I left here patches for
texinfo/{it,id}.po. The patches were created against copies of these files
retrieved today with cvs -z3
-d:pserver:anonym...@cvs.savannah.gnu.org:/sources/texinfo co texinfo/po. They
fix:
^_ issue, affecting both the languages it and id
double backslash issue, affecting only the it language.

[Bug 707931] Re: info can not find Top node (it_IT.UTF-8 Italian locale)
I checked http://packages.debian.org/experimental/texinfo: the equivalent of Ubuntu's texinfo.po is texinfo-4.13.92.dfsg.1/po/it.po provided by source package http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/t/texinfo/texinfo_4.13.92.dfsg.1.orig.tar.xz (no patch affecting this file is provided by Debian's http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/t/texinfo/texinfo_4.13.92.dfsg.1-1.debian.tar.gz, therefore this file it.po should be from upstream, I would assume). Comparing this file it.po with texinfo.po from launchpad I noticed these things, pertaining the bug in discussion: * issue with tab character, reported at comment #8, is fixed in texinfo.po but not in mainstream it.po * both the files show the same bug regarding wrong control character (^_ instead of \x1f see #3, #8 and following). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/707931 Title: info can not find Top node (it_IT.UTF-8 Italian locale) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/texinfo/+bug/707931/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Looking at the source package from Debian experimental, a quick grep shows which translations do not include the special control character: grep -c $'\x1f' po/*.po | grep ':1$' Excluding the de_AT and hu locales, which currently aren't translating the above mentioned message, these locales are still affected from the bug: po/id.po po/it.po po/rw.po po/tr.po Since these files are not modified in the Debian patches, this is definitely an upstream issue, still present in 4.13.92. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/707931 Title: info can not find Top node (it_IT.UTF-8 Italian locale) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/texinfo/+bug/707931/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Same issue in quantal (tab char was fixed in translation, but special ctrl char still wrong). I have attached a (very simple) patch, for potential maintainer(s). Please apply these changes, if you think they are appropriate. Moreover, should someone want to patch texinfo file by him/herself, please do as following: download file texinfo.po for your release from lauchpad, e.g. for Ubuntu 12.10 http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/quantal/language-pack-it-base/quantal/download/head:/texinfo.po-20110119120642-tdoej8x3jpu7ms0l-2/texinfo.po download attached texinfo_it.patch in the same directory... patch the texinfo.po: $ patch texinfo_it.patch compile it: $ msgfmt -o texinfo.mo texinfo.po finally install the mo file: $ sudo install -m 644 texinfo.mo /usr/share/locale-langpack/it/LC_MESSAGES/texinfo.mo ...and update info: $ sudo update-info-dir Hope it might be useful, in some way. ** Patch added: fix wrong char https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/texinfo/+bug/707931/+attachment/3469303/+files/texinfo_it.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/707931 Title: info can not find Top node (it_IT.UTF-8 Italian locale) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/texinfo/+bug/707931/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 707931] Re: info can not find Top node (it_IT.UTF-8 Italian locale)
I have the same problem, using the Esperanto (EO) localization. The file /usr/share/info/dir for EO also has some problems, but I noticed that the big deal is with the line containing the Top node reference. Instead of a '\t' symbol, there should be a real tab character. So, you may simply edit it and substitute the '\t' for a TAB. But, as seldom we find some translated info manual, I had to stick with the LANG solution indicated before, so that I have all manuals in English. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/707931 Title: info can not find Top node (it_IT.UTF-8 Italian locale) -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The problem is caused by the Italian translation of /usr/share/info/dir. There are several errors: * The control character \x1f has been replaced by the string '^_', as noted in comment #3. * On the line immediately following, there is a '\\t' instead of a '\t'. * The '* Menu' string on the last line is indented by two spaces.
