Thanks, Steve. This actually pointed me in the right direction. For some reason, when KDE's tarball creation tool generated the git snapshot tarball, it failed to create the necessary CMakeLists.txt files, so I just fixed the tool to force the creation. To be fair, the tool is only made for proper releases, not git snapshots. The reason KDE has a separate tool to create their release tarballs is because they do their translations in a separate repository and the tool pulls the translations from there. In the case of a git snapshot the translations are incomplete, but I'd rather have some translations than none, so it gets a fuzzy set of commonly translated phrases and previously-existing translations from prior releases to generate translations where it can. Hence the tarball now has a po directory where it didn't exist before. Either way, we now have digikam built with these translations in the release pocket. I estimate one more snapshot prior to Beta freeze. The digikam team estimates a beta release "in the coming weeks" so that might be a post-Beta upload or an SRU, and then a final release would almost certainly be an SRU upload. The good news is, like us, they are currently feature-frozen. -- Erich Eickmeyer Project Leader - Ubuntu Studio Member - Ubuntu Community Council
