Description Adam Weinberger 2005-03-28 02:53:01 UTC 
Every time GIMP branches, the GTP must manually alter its backend. The GIMP is
the only app that requires this, and it's caused there to be a number of extra
steps and complexities required in updating the GTP's most valuable translator
tool: the GTP status pages (http://l10n-status.gnome.org).

The problem is simple: intltool-update cannot be run from within the GIMP's tips
directory. It requires that update.sh be run instead. The following very simple
change fixes this (of course, Makefiles will have to be updated as well):

cd gimp
cp -R tips po-tips
sed -e "s|tips/|po-tips/|" tips/POTFILES.in > po-tips/POTFILES.in
rm -R tips

It would make the GTP's life a lot easier if tips/ could be moved to po-tips/.

You couldn't have found a more complicated way to express a simple request,
could you?
Comment 2 Adam Weinberger 2005-03-28 20:58:12 UTC 
Probably. I'm still partial to "Change number of characters in pathname".

	Switch to a more standard way of treating the translations for the
	startup tips (bug #171846):

	* Makefile.am
	* configure.in: removed tips directory; added data/tips and po-tips
	directories instead.

	* data/Makefile.am
	* data/AUTHORS
	* data/ChangeLog
	* data/README: removed these three outdated files.

	* data/tips: gimp.tips.xml and related files live here now.

	* po-tips: translations of the tips are found here now.

	* README.i18n: changed accordingly.
