I have a custom extraction/build process in yelp-xsl. It uses itstool, but with some wrapper scripts, and not using the standard build rules from gnome-doc-utils or yelp-tools that D-L expects. To make this seamless for translators, I added the POT file to git and listed it in po/POTFILES.in. When there are string changes, the POT file gets rebuilt and I commit the changes. I know some people frown on putting generated files into git, but this works really well. -- Shaun _______________________________________________ gnome-i18n mailing list gnome-i18n@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n
