How to import translation from Firefox official po files into Ubuntu Launchpad

2008-10-22 Thread Peteris Krisjanis
HI there!

Anyone know steps needed to import official Firefox translation (done
by me and my friends) into Ubuntu Launchpad? So far we tried to export
po from Launchpad, then using Kbabel auto translate it using official
po files as term dictionary, but there are lot of errors when trying
to do that. Anyone has know-how how to deal with this?

Already thanks for hints,
Pēteris Krišjānis

 Ok, let me explain - I mean not auto translate, but more - find exact
 string 'a' and find a exact translation of it. No fuzzy translations,
 no partial translations. Just exact match :)

 So you are matching word 'foo' with the translation that was made
 somewhere else? Is that right? If so, I have another comment which
 I'll save for the time being. :)

Ok, ok, I know complications of this :)

 I don't know what do you mean with official FIrefox translations team,
 but one guy from our team communicates with Mozilla about including
 our language as one of officially available for download. If that
 means that I am part of official Firefox translations team, then yes
 :)

 I thought that your locale was already part of Firefox and that the
 issue was just getting them into Rosetta. Now that I understand the
 situation, I would adivise that you do get your work uploaded into
 Firefox first, as it will trickle down to every other distribution
 that ships Firefox, avoiding having you guys do the work twice and,
 most important of all, making your work available to the entire world!
 :)

Well, that's not helping. I am fully aware how it all works (doing
damn translations for ~ 9 years). I want get Firefox 3.x translation
into Intrepid. Deadline is tomorrow, so no way it will get trough
Firefox official translation system and then uploaded into Launchpad.

So, is there good way of doing this except exporting po, translating
it and trying to import it again into Launchpad?

cheers,
Peter.

We (the Galician team) have just the same problem:  we are interested in
having the Galician translation of Firefox in Intrepid, but we have not
found the correct steps to upload the official Firefox translation to
Launchpad (uploading the .xpi or the converted .po does not work).
Please see the thread (May 2008) in [1].  Any help will be appreciated.

Cheers,
Felipe.
