Description Daniel Nylander 2007-08-09 11:21:47 UTC
Some of the GStreamer translations done through The Translation Project (TP) are:
- out of date 
- added after the actual release
- not commited to SVN tree

Current versions in TP:

gst-plugins 0.8.12
gst-plugins-bad 0.10.5
gst-plugins-base 0.10.14
gst-plugins-good 0.10.6
gst-plugins-ugly 0.10.6
gstreamer 0.10.14

Comparing this with trunk/HEAD over at
http://l10n.gnome.org/languages/sv/freedesktop.org
you notice that some translations through TP doesn't get commited (or too late) or doesn't get added to TP


Other information:
My suggestion is that you let the GNOME GTP teams handle the translations.
Comment 1 Tim-Philipp Müller 2007-09-08 20:30:37 UTC
There was a bug in our old download-po script.  It would only download translations for languages that already existed, but not newly-added ones.  This is fixed now.

Also, the whole download-po thing wasn't mentioned in the release notes, so it wouldn't get updated if the person doing the release didn't know about it already and remember it. This is also fixed now in the release docs.


I know the situation with the translations isn't ideal, but (AFAIK) there were good reasons for not having the GNOME translation team handle the translations (among other things probably the problem with CVS commit access on 
freedesktop.org).  If you want his changed, please take it up with Thomas (van der Stichele).

        * docs/random/release:
          Really make sure translations are up-to-date before
          a release (#465010).

          If there are new languages, they need to be added to po/LINGUAS.
