hi all,
i was asking one week ago about a problem with my translation files:
at the moment i am translating epiphany into amharic. the responsible >group
seems to be died out - so i am writing to this list.
i have a problem with my mo-files. Some strings of the translations seems
to be ignored by the program. for example this string of the po-file:
#: src/ephy-window.c:100
msgid "_Open..."
msgstr "ክፈት... (_O)"
When i copy the poedit-generated mo-file to
/usr/share/locale-langpack/am/LC_MESSAGES/epiphany.mo then
this translated string doesn't appear in the file-menu (LANG=am_ET.UTF-8
epiphany).
Do you have any idea how to fix it or a link to a appropriate manual?
I received the proposal to add the ignored strigs to the gtk20.mo file.
I tried the following:
i added this string to the following files, without any change of the
symtoms: glib20.mo, gtk20.mo, gtk20-properties.mo, libbonobo-2.0.mo and of
course to epiphany.mo
after this, i was copying these files to
/usr/share/locale-langpack/am/LC_MESSAGES and to
/usr/share/locale/am/LC_MESSAGES/
nothing happens - there are still many strings in english. the translation
of "_Open..." is still displayed in english.
i realy don't understand why.
i was checking all mo-files the program is using at runtime, i think the
problem are not the files but perhaps a strange config of gnome? do you have
any further ideas?
