dpmgood morning all07:34
andrejzmorning dpm07:35
dpmhey andrejz :)07:40
andrejzi was wondering if langpack for 11.10 are already being generated07:41
artnaywhat's the deal with gnome-panel? it's totally without translations. previously it was called gnome-panel-20 and was translated 100-percently07:43
artnaythe same applies to okular which has been divided into several parts - none of them have translations at the moment07:44
artnayand I'd suggest to promote lightdm and deja-dup, they're somewhat hidden now (1351 -> 1425 of 1444 results) as they're on the same page as e.g. subversion and rpm07:45
artnayand is there a way (maybe some url change to this page: https://translations.launchpad.net/translations/+products-with-translations ) to list the most recent translatable projects on launchpad?07:48
andrejz@artnay: i think the problem with okular is that one template has been split into several parts, and i don't know how message sharing works with that07:48
andrejzmaybe dpm can tell you more07:48
andrejzas for pririty of lightdm the template has been just recenlty imported and nobody has increased it's visibility07:49
andrejzi will do that right away07:49
artnayandrejz: looks like it but it's not ok to lose all translated strings07:49
artnayandrejz: great, I thought you would do it ;)07:49
andrejz@artnay: i agree it's not ok to lose strings :), just don't know how the system works in that case.07:50
artnayandrejz: do you have any idea about the most recent projects?07:51
artnayLP is in a need of better sorting07:52
dpmartnay, andrejz is correct with okular: upstream changed the source package structure and we needed to change it in LP too. I sorted out last week: https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/oneiric/+source/okular/+imports so the next oneiric language pack will contain the translations. Btw, no strings are lost07:52
artnaythere's probably a bug somewhere07:52
artnaydpm: good to hear07:52
artnaydpm: can you shine some light on gnome-panel? won't it be depreciated for new oneiric installs?07:53
andrejz@artnay: just increased priority of lightdm and decreased priority for gdm07:53
dpmthanks andrejz07:53
dpmartnay, not sure what happens with gnome-panel. Let me check...07:54
artnayhttps://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/oneiric/+source/gnome-panel/+pots/gnome-panel/07:54
andrejzas far as gnome-panel is concerned a new package name is present gnome-panel-3 instead of gnome-panel-2 before07:55
andrejzi think that's the problem07:55
artnayandrejz: true the content is almost the same as before07:56
artnaybut...07:56
artnaymaybe that package should be promoted as well, don't you think?07:57
andrejzyes i will. i manually imported the file a couple of days ago, but forgot to increase the priority :(. Good to have you to remind of those slips :)07:58
artnayandrejz: and duplicity as well. I think deja-dup takes messages from duplicity07:58
andrejzok07:58
artnaywell, not sure about duplicity, it's a backend after all07:59
dpmandrejz, I think the problem is that the gnome-panel-2.0 template was disabled and the gnome-panel-3.0 (as gnome-panel) was accepted, and we should have rather renamed gnome-panel-2.0 to gnome-panel07:59
andrejzbut gnome-panel-2.0 isn't going to be used anymore, correct?08:00
dpmno, but it contains lots of messages and translations that presumably need to be carried out to gnome-panel-3.008:00
artnaygnome-panel contains all those shell strings. maybe those could be merged into the gnome-panel-2.008:00
andrejzoh, i see where the problem is08:02
andrejzbasically template gnome-panel-3.0 should be renamed to gnome-panel-2.0 to use the existing translations08:02
andrejzso probably the name should be changed in natty to gnome-panel ?08:03
artnayandrejz: why in natty? it doesn't exist there, does it?08:05
andrejz@artnay: if you want to use message sharing (transfer translations from one ubuntu version to the other), packages need to have the same template name08:05
artnayand plain renaming won't do it, gnome-panel contains gnome3/shell additions to gnome-panel-2.008:05
artnayandrejz: ah, ok08:05
andrejzso if you have evoluton in natty and evolution in oneiric translations are automatically synced08:06
artnaytrue, true08:06
andrejzbut in this case gnome-panel in named "gnome-panel-2.0" and we cannot name it that way in 11.10 cause that would be incorrect (since we are shipping gnome-panel-3.0")08:06
andrejzso (dpm can you confirm this) the best way is to change the template name from "gnome-panel-2.0" to "gnome-panel" in all supported ubuntu versions, which still share messages amongst themselves08:07
dpmandrejz, correct. I've changed the name of gnome-panel-2.0 to gnome-panel in oneiric (and the path to po/gnome-panel-3.0). I'll now change the names in previous releases08:08
andrejzwii, i knew the correct answer, thanks for the report artnay :)08:09
andrejz@artnay: there has been a lot of gnome-2.0, -3.0 template changing in this cycle, some packages already have names 3.2 :)08:12
artnaydpm: one question remains. is there a way to list the most recent translatable projects on LP?08:36
dpmartnay, I don't know (my hunch is that there isn't). I'd recommend asking on #launchpad, where they'll be able to tell you in more detail08:37
=== henninge is now known as henninge-lunch

artnaydpm: there isn't but I created bug #81224311:39
ubot4Launchpad bug 812243 in launchpad "Allow translatable projects to be sorted in more versatile ways (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/81224311:39
dpmah, thanks artnay11:40
artnayif you guys have more filtering/sorting needs, feel free to add them11:40
dpmI've subscribed to it for now11:41
