Using the "new" gettext format for debconf templates helps for templates
translations. For instance, detecting outdated or untranslated strings
becomes considerably easier. It also keeps track of who did which
translation.
The attached patch does the required modifications :
- debian/control modification for dependencies (see below)
- execute "debconf-gettextize debian/*templates*"
- mark the right strings as translatable in the templates (see below)
- update the style to the best current practice (see below)
If you want to reproduce this by yourself instead of applying the
patch, you have to do:
- install po-debconf on your system
- go to the debian directory
- read man po-debconf..:-)
- run "debconf-gettextize *.templates"
- read the output
- change Build-Depends or Build-Depends-Indep (see below)
They should list "po-debconf"
- update the templates file to mark as translatable only the fields
which should (ie, not the one containing stuff which cannot be
translated such as kernel module name, and neither the one not
shown to the users), and improve the style to follow the dstg.
For more details, see po-debconf documentation, especially "man 7
po-debconf"
Read this if you're concerned with backports :
--------------------------------------------
Please note that the suggested modifications will make your
package a little bit harder to backport to earlier Debian releases. If
this is a concern to you, you may try to adopt the method used by the
openssh package and detailed by Colin Watson in
http://lists.debian.org/debian-i18n/2003/debian-i18n-200307/msg00026.html
This patch does not includes this method as this would make it too
invasive, IMHO. So, preserving backportability is up to you...
The rest of the story :
---------------------
While I was working on the convertion to po-debconf, I noticed that the
templates of your package may be easily improved by applying the advices
contained at the following address:
http://people.debian.org/~bubulle/dtsg.txt
I applied the advices from this document concerning the short descriptions,
and I think that no extra work is needed on the templates. But feel free to
improve them further, if you want... Don't get me wrong, I don't want to
criticize, I just want the template to reach a translatable state (ie quite
stable) rather soon.
Once the switch is achieved, and the style improvement are done, I
guess that you will receive translations of your templates rather soon. You
may consider asking on the debian-i18n@lists.debian.org mailing list for
translations once you think that your templates are in a sort of final state
where they won't be modified in the near future.
Thanks for helping the translators, and thus your non english speaker
end-users.
Bye, Mt.
PS: I know that this package is orphaned, but according to my stats, that
the most important package (wrt popcon) not having a po-debconf switch bug
report. So here you are..
