GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 408579
Some strings in mail need to be i18n-ed
Last modified: 2010-04-02 14:08:46 UTC
Please describe the problem: When saving attachment and file with the same name already exists, "Overwrite confirmation" dialog appears - it contains unlocalized string "File exists" Steps to reproduce: 1. Invoke Evolution 2. Compose a new mail 3. Choose Insert --> Attachment 4 [details]. When saving attachment and file with the same name already exists, "Overwrite confirmation" dialog appears - it contains unlocalized string "File exists" Actual results: Expected results: Does this happen every time? Other information:
same issue as bug 408586 - it is translated in the .po file, but the """ strings get translated to »/«. #: ../e-util/e-system.error.xml.h:5 msgid "File exists "{0}"." msgstr "Die Datei »{0}« existiert bereits."
Created attachment 85758 [details] [review] Change .po files, use \" instead of "e;
Is it fine to modify .po. I donno. Any one to help me out to review this?
this is not a way to fix this, only to workaround this until the next translator runs "intltool-update LANG" which will probably remove this hack again from the po file. so no, it will probably not work.
the approach in bug 408579 looks more promising to me

Andre and others, do you have a better way to fix this issue?
Jeff, We need some I18N experts thoughts here. Updating the patch status anyways.
sorry, i meant bug 341194
Created attachment 108312 [details] [review] Patch for mail/mail.error.xml, e-util/e-system.error.xml Reading bug 341194, I like to just modify """ so that intltool-merge works fine. This patch is an easy fix even though the xml files have several """.
Even the proper fix should be done in intltool, then it seems like working fine, neither xml parser nor the intltool claims anything. Feel free to change in all translated xml files. Btw, you can commit to trunk, with proper Changelog entries.
Thanks for your review. I commited the patch. 2008-04-07 Takao Fujiwara <takao.fujiwara@sun.com> reviewed by: Milan Crha ** Fix for bug #408579 * mail/mail.error.xml: * e-util/e-system.error.xml: Changed '"' to '\"' to work with intltool.
I guess we can close this then, right?
Yes, thanks for closing this bug. I think I cannot close this by myself because I'm not a bug submitter.
OK, closing then. Thanks for your help.
