We didn't get the goal, he is using pt (from Portugal) as his preferred 
language for another sites and seeing pt from Brazil as default language on 
debian site. Remains the thread that we have last year, pt and pt_br are not 
the same language.
 So, Tiago it is not necessary to split pt and pt_br in these days, there is 
no transaltion work from pt (from Portugal).

Bug#130147: www.debian.org: xfig and gimp versions of logos are damaged

2002-01-20 Thread Charles Briscoe-Smith 
Package: www.debian.org
Version: N/A; reported 2002-01-20
Severity: normal

This page gives an account of an error which crept into the current
Debian logo when/since it was first adopted:

http://www.hands.com/~phil/debian/logo/readme.html

I noticed recently that the logo which gdm uses by default is the
damaged version.  The maintainer says he used the version from this page:

http://www.debian.org/logos/

...and that (quite properly) he won't fix it except by using a new
version from that page.

I have checked, and, while all the JPEG, PNG, EPS and PDF versions of
the logo seem to be correct, the Gimp ".xcf" and XFig ".fig" versions
are incorrect.  Please would you regenerate the following files from the
(corrent) EPS or PDF files, thus helping banish the old, broken logo
from the face of the earth?  Thanks.

http://www.debian.org/logos/openlogo.xcf.gz
http://www.debian.org/logos/openlogo-nd.xcf.gz
http://www.debian.org/logos/openlogo.fig
http://www.debian.org/logos/openlogo-nd.fig

The following files are not broken (they were apparently produced from
the original by GS's epswrite driver, so they should be reliable):

http://www.debian.org/logos/openlogo.eps
http://www.debian.org/logos/openlogo-nd.eps

Thanks.

I noticed this before (a few years back or so), but didn't know how to fix
it. :(

Can you provide us with exact instructions on how to fix this?

The main problem I see is that the XCF file is 1529x1890 while the EPS file
is 153x202.

I guess I can take the new EPS from Phil's site and convert it to XCF, but
what about XFig? I never used that program.

Note also that there are other files that have this bad version:
  openlogo-nd.xcf.gz
  officiallogo.xcf.gz
And probably their .fig variants (didn't check).

The swirl on officiallogo-nd.xcf.gz looks uglier than the one on
officiallogo.pdf -- that should be replaced, too.

This change seems to require a translated /CD/releases/ directory (I
just translated it to avoid the problem - but was going to anyway).

I've went back to trace the origin of the bad images. This problem was
noticed and partly fixed in November/December 1999. I will remove the
remaining bad ones from the logos web page. Fixed versions can be added as
soon as they are recovered/made.

I couldn't find Raul's original stuff on GNU/art or his web page
(silva.com), so I'll email him personally.

Bug#130182: www.debian.org: powerpc ports page could be more informative

2002-01-20 Thread Matt Zimmerman 
Package: www.debian.org
Version: N/A; reported 2002-01-20
Severity: normal

The link "PowerPC home page" is broken.  Someone posted to debian-boot
recently asking if it would run on their iMac, and I couldn't point them to
an answer that could be easily reached from /ports/powerpc.  I suggest
linking directly to http://penguinppc.org/projects/hw/ for information on
supported hardware.

And perhaps move the penguinppc link up to the top section, rather than
under "History", so that it is more easily seen as a source for more
information.

Okay.  Here's how to regenerate openlogo-nd.xcf.gz:

Start the Gimp.  (I'm using v1.2.2.)

Select "File"/"Open..." then find and select openlogo-nd.eps.  If you have
no local copy, cut-n-paste "http://www.debian.org/logos/openlogo-nd.eps";
into the "selection" field.  Hit "OK".  In the "Load Postscript" dialog,
set "resolution" to 831.  Leave width, height and pages at their defaults.
Make sure "Try bounding box" is selected.  Use "Color" for coloring.
Use "Strong" for graphic antialiasing.  Text aa doesn't matter (there's
no text; it's all vectors).  Hit OK.

With a resolution of 831 DPI, this should give an image of very nearly the
same pixel dimensions as the current openlogo-nd.xcf.gz.  Right-click in
the image, select "View"/"Info Window..." to see the dimensions and
resolution of the image.

You probably want to change the image's declared resolution to 72 DPI,
to match the current .xcf file.  Here's how:  Right-click on the image,
select "Image"/"Scale Image..."  In the "Resolution X" field, replace the
current value with "72", then hit TAB.  "Y" will change to 72 too, and
the "New Width" and "Height" displayed in inches will update.  The "New
Width" and "Height" displayed in pixels further up should NOT change.
Click OK.  Point at the image and check the resolution in the info window.

Now you need to save the result.  Right-click in the image window,
select "File"/"Save As...".  Enter a filename ending with ".xcf.gz"
(so that the Gimp will compress the file automatically).  Hit "OK".  Done.

To regenerate openlogo.xcf.gz, use exactly the same procedure, but
an appropriate resolution to match the current .xcf's image size
would be 1000 DPI, which makes much more sense than 831 DPI.  And,
obviously, use "http://www.debian.org/logos/openlogo.eps"; instead of
"http://www.debian.org/logos/openlogo-nd.eps";.

> The main problem I see is that the XCF file is 1529x1890 while the EPS file

The EPS is resolution independent.  It's all vectors.  You can rasterise
it at (theoretically) any resolution you want.

The EPS on http://www.debian.org/logos/ is fine, AFAICT.

I have used XFig, but not as extensively as I've used the Gimp.
However, I think the solution will be a short, undoubtedly cryptic,
incantation involving pstoedit, but I have yet to divine the details.
I'll let you know.

HTH.

Yes.  (FYI, I was about to mail you saying "I can't check this because
you've already removed it from the web site", but then I found that
www.uk.debian.org hasn't been updated yet, so I websucked a copy from
there...)

I suggest updating officiallogo.xcf.gz and officiallogo-nd.xcf.gz
from officiallogo.eps and officiallogo-nd.eps in the same way
as for the open logo.  The appropriate resolution at which to
convert "officiallogo-nd.eps" appears to be about 1400 DPI.
For "officiallogo.eps", 990 DPI works nicely.

The XFig versions of the official logo are hideous -- even worse than the
XFig versions of the open logo.  On officiallogo.fig, the holes in the
"d", "e", "b" and "a" of "debian" have filled in with black.

I've been playing around with pstoedit and have found that, by default,
it introduces exactly the same brokenness that we're trying to get rid of.
However, a decent XFig representation can be generated by telling pstoedit
to convert curves to approximations formed from many short straight lines.
The corners become visible if you scale the result up really big, but
I think it's the best we can get.

The usual incantation to convert EPS file logo.eps to an XFIG file
logo.fig is:

pstoedit -f xfig -ssp logo.eps logo.fig

The "-ssp" prevents the insides of the "d", "e", "b" and "a" from being
filled in.  However, this leaves the results distorted in exactly the
way we are trying to fix.

This command converts logo.eps to logo.fig while flattening curves into
series of straight line segments:

pstoedit -f xfig -ssp -psarg -r600x600 -flat 0.1 -nc logo.eps logo.fig

Smaller values passed to "-flat" increase the accuracy of the
approximation.  Referring to the PostScript Language Reference Manual
and the pstoedit man page, "-flat 0.2" is the smallest value that has
effect; smaller values make no further difference. However, increasing
the resolution will increase the effect, so that's what I've done.
600 DPI seems sufficient to give files which look reasonably good.

I don't know which you'd rather do: provide .fig files which don't
scale up to huge sizes very well, or just tell XFig users to grab the
EPS version and import it as an XFig "picture" object.  Making the EPS
file into a picture object has the advantage of not losing scalability,
but it doesn't enable editing the logo.  Of course, this may be seen as
an advantage...

So, it's up to you.  I suggest you either convert using the second
command line above, or don't provide an XFig version of the logo.
