GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 549411
Some strings doesn't work properly with translations
Last modified: 2009-06-22 19:24:08 UTC
I'm translating the module to Spanish but I found some strings that I've already translated on the es.po file but don't show up on the UI. I've even tried with another languages which has those strings translated but they also didn't work. Those strings are on the UI on the "Edit Implicit Authorizations" dialog ("polkit-gnome-authorization" tool). The combo box always puts the English strings. The strings are defined from line 117 to the line 129 ("tools/polkit-gnome-authorization.c"). I don't know if this happens because the struct "EditImplResult" (or "PolKitResult") doesn't like gettext or what. Could you tell me if you can reproduce the error, please? Thanks :-)
Yes, gettext calls are missing at runtime. Patch follows.

Please update also the POTFILES.in file to include all relevant translation strings. See http://l10n.gnome.org/module/policykit-gnome/

ping. Is this maintained?
This tool is no longer in git master - there are plans to write a new tool with similar functionality but that ain't done yet. Thanks for the patch anyway.
Is this new tool planned for GNOME 2.28? What are the translators supposed to do with the policykit-gnome translations in the meantime?
