[16:37] <UbuPhillup> hey anyone know how to change translations for the xdg-user-dirs ? (i asked before)
[16:37] <UbuPhillup> dpm: ?
[16:42] <UbuPhillup> or henninge ?
[16:43] <henninge> UbuPhillup: I don't I am sorry.
[16:44] <UbuPhillup> henninge: thats for the german team, because we dont want »Schreibtisch« for »Desktop« ;)
[16:44] <UbuPhillup> but i think we can not do it with lp
[16:44] <henninge> No, we dont
[16:44] <henninge> ;)
[16:44] <UbuPhillup> so we need other help ;)
[16:45] <UbuPhillup> henninge: currently in saucy is every think translated with »Schreibtisch« ;(
[16:48] <henninge> UbuPhillup: Look here:
[16:48] <henninge> https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/saucy/+source/xdg-user-dirs/+pots/xdg-user-dirs/de/+translate?batch=10&show=all&search=Desktop
[16:49] <henninge> It looks like "Schreibtisch" ist used in Upstream.
[16:49] <henninge> Ah no, never mind. That is not upstream.
[16:49] <UbuPhillup> henninge: i know, but that change nothing
[16:49] <henninge> Maybe you are seeing the gtk translation.
[16:50] <henninge> But I am not current at all on the state of translations in Ubuntu or eben saucy
[16:50] <henninge> I am just guessing.
[16:50] <henninge> s/eben/even/
[16:51] <UbuPhillup> henninge: we must change the path
[16:51] <UbuPhillup> henninge: i can change the .mo file, but that dont change the path
[16:53] <UbuPhillup> henninge: you know that we have our own channel #ubuntu-de-l10n ?
[16:57] <henninge> henninge: There is ubuntu-de
[16:58] <UbuPhillup> henninge: ?
[16:58] <henninge> UbuPhillup: Yes, there is
[16:59] <UbuPhillup> ahh okey
[16:59] <henninge> Gotta run now. Feierabend!
[16:59] <henninge> I don't think there is an English word for that ... ;-)
[17:15] <UbuPhillup> hey kelemengabor
[17:16] <UbuPhillup> Do you know how to change translations for the xdg-user-dirs ?
[17:17] <kelemengabor> hi UbuPhillup - you need to send your translations upstream to http://translationproject.org/domain/xdg-user-dirs.html
[17:19] <UbuPhillup> kelemengabor: i think they dont want your translation, they change it, but we want to change it back for ubuntu;)
[17:22] <kelemengabor> that's unfortunate. this package is somewhat special in the sense that it does not use langpacks, because it's among the ones necessary for a localized install. so you would want to patch the package source, which is rarely happening
[17:23] <kelemengabor> so I have no idea what is easier, to convince Ubuntu packagers or to convince upstream folks
[17:24] <kelemengabor> dpm: any idea what's best to do?
[17:24] <UbuPhillup> kelemengabor: thanks a lot
[17:26] <UbuPhillup> kelemengabor: »to convince upstream folks« we try that but gnome said no and so it will not change
[17:26] <UbuPhillup> but we can try it one more time …
[17:26] <UbuPhillup> anyway thanks for your help kelemengabor
[17:27] <kelemengabor> yw :)
[17:35] <dpm> kelemengabor, UbuPhillup, I think convincing upstream should be the way to go. I think it might be easier to convince packagers if you can prepare a patched package and propose it for upload, but if things are done upstream it would require less work from everyone
[17:35] <dpm> (apart from the convincing upstream bit)
[17:51] <UbuPhillup> Thanks a lot
[17:52] <UbuPhillup> dpm
