intltool 0.23 produces broken message in gnome-panel
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
intltool 0.23 produces this garbage message in the gnome-2-0 branch of gnome-panel: #: applets/gen_util/clock.schemas.in.h:6 msgid "" "Sets the hour format, may be either 12 or 24</long> <default>24</default> </" "locale> <locale name=\"en_US\"> <short>Hour format</short> <long>Sets the " "hour format, may be either 12 or 24</long> <default>12</default> </locale> </" "schema> <schema> <key>/schemas/apps/clock_applet/prefs/show_seconds</key> " "<owner>clock-applet</owner> <type>bool</type> <default>true</default> " "<locale name=\"C\"> <short>Show time with seconds</short> <long>Display " "seconds in time" Seems very broken to me.
yep, and its beacuse this particular schemas file does not validate against the gconf dtd (the one I've added to gconf cvs some time ago) I think the only way to ensure intltool produces predictable results is to feed him only valid documents (at least valid to some agreed standard, the dtd seems to be the closest thing to a valid standard in this case) I'll patch the schemas file on the branch as I've done on HEAD. closing this one as FIXED although technically its not a intltool bug.
If gnome-panel is to blame, change the product to gnome-panel. :-)
