Description Christian Neumair 2002-12-16 13:42:31 UTC
There were some discussions on gnome-hackers [1]
This is my first attempt to fix these issues by using octal escapes and not
marking copyright strings for translations.
Please review,.

regs,
 Chris

Chris: thanks for doing this. But I don't think a final consensus was
reached was it. The changes you propose make sense but there may be
more changes, might there not? I'd prefer to all the changes at once.
Comment 4 Christian Neumair 2002-12-16 19:55:44 UTC
I was again swift to commit a similar patch to gnome-media - this time
*with* permission from Iain. Sorry for that.

Changes to what? You mean that we're possibly not all of the same
opinion and that we ought to wait whether anybody has a better proposal?
How long do you want to wait? I fear that this patch might get lost so
I prefer to apply slight but consistent (just as consistent as the
strings should be) pressure.

 Chris

Comment 7 Christian Neumair 2002-12-19 21:39:26 UTC
I'd like to start working on some other modules but I got into trouble
(much cmpletely orphaned code in gnome-utils and gnome-applets).
At the moment I'm contacting some maintainers and asking them what to do.

Chris: please open a seperate bug against gedit
Comment 10 Christian Neumair 2002-12-19 22:01:50 UTC
Sorry, I think it's better to open a new bug.

Comment 11 Christian Neumair 2002-12-19 22:05:58 UTC
Added dependency on metabug.

Comment 12 Mark McLoughlin 2002-12-19 22:08:20 UTC
Once again, I am extremely annoyed. That patch you committed to
gnome-panel doesn't even compile. Please TEST your patch before
committing. That is not too much to expect.
Comment 13 Mark McLoughlin 2002-12-19 22:11:42 UTC
See my comment in #101645 on how to correctly do a metabug. And what
is the point in doing it anyone. This bug is finished, gone - who cares ?
Comment 14 Christian Neumair 2002-12-19 22:17:32 UTC
I think should have an overview over the patches regarding that issue,
independent of their state.
