[21:52] <godbyk> jbicha: Thanks for the ubuntu-docs instructions. I'll give it a test run now and see how it goes.
[22:25] <godbyk> jbicha: For translations (.po files) that are new (have never existed before), should I add those to the repository or ignore/delete them?
[22:46] <jbicha> godbyk: add them and also add them to ubuntu-help/Makefile.am
[22:48] <jbicha> although a lot of the languages are virtually untranslated so it might not help much
[22:48] <godbyk> jbicha: Okay, will do.
[22:48] <godbyk> That's true.
[22:49] <godbyk> jbicha: Any pointers or tips on building the .deb? I've been going through the Ubuntu packaging guide but I suspect there's a lot of 'first time .deb file' stuff there that I can ignore.
[22:52] <jbicha> well there's a few different ways of doing it, I use sbuild and here's a draft of instructions that I wrote for the packaging guide: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5709067/
[22:54] <godbyk> Okay, thanks. I'll give that a shot.
[22:54] <godbyk> Should the .pot file from Launchpad be committed to the bzr repository along with the updated .po files?
[22:55] <jbicha> no, the .pot in Launchpad comes from the .pot in the bzr tree
[22:57] <godbyk> Okay. With the ubuntu-manual project, I ignore Launchpad's .pot, too, because it typically just rewraps the lines.
