happyarondpm_: hi15:18
dpm_hey happyaron15:20
happyarondpm_: does u-t-cs still can upload translations for a source tarball? (I know not now, just ask for when launchpad is running in correctly)?15:20
happyaronI have made a small fix for libreoffice's desktop file and plan to upload it soon when launchpad accept uploads again if the maintainer doesn't have the plan to make a new version very soon.15:21
dpm_happyaron, I'm not 100% sure to be honest. It might be that only members of the rosetta-admin team (and project maintainers, of course) can do it. In any case, you can try it safely on translations.staging.launchpad.net15:21
dpm_so you can see if it works or not15:22
dpm_happyaron, but does the fix not need to be in a patch to work?15:22
happyarondpm_: I cannot find a url to do that15:22
happyarondpm_: yes I'll help on the package, but the pot is a new one, and the maintainer said it still need some work on rosetta.15:23
dpm_let me give you the url15:24
dpm_just a sec, LP is being slow...15:25
happyaronno worries, :)15:25
dpm_so you see it's not only a problem in China ;)15:25
happyaron:D perhaps people in some contries can have a faster speed, like in the UK?15:27
dpm_I'm sure it's flying in the Canonical office in London! :)15:28
happyaron:)15:28
* happyaron someone might need to ping Mark and ask him to buy some cdn network service...15:29
dpm_happyaron, ah, I know what's happening. You cannot do first-time template uploads by hand. The first time a template is created, it needs to be done through a package upload. After that, templates and translations for the whole source package can be uploaded manually. I see someone has accepted the lo-desktop template already, but unfortunately the upload failed, which is why we cannot do manual uploads yet: no template has yet been imported at a15:30

dpm_https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/+source/libreoffice/+imports15:30
happyarondpm_: ah, see, so we have to wait the maintainer to make a new upload15:31
dpm_yeah :(15:31
dpm_happyaron, I saw the bug, and I think to be able to make translations work in the .desktop files, they'll need to be modified to include the X-Ubuntu-Gettext-Domain field, i.e. approving the template will not be enough15:33
dpm_but I haven't looked at it with detail yet15:33
happyaronthere's another question, will we accept those translations to langpacks or not? I saw the initial import of lo-desktop has checked that field, I've no idea who did that.15:35
dpm_I think I'd put them in language packs, this way we won't depend on the package maintainer to integrate translations into the package, and they can be updated with langpack updates15:36
happyaronOK15:36
