| alkisg | Hi, how can I prevent launchpad from doing daily translation commits, when the only things that are changed are the headers that launchpad itself inserts, like "X-Launchpad-Export-Date: 2013-11-24 04:30+0000\n"? | 06:52 |
|---|---|---|
| alkisg | E.g. http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ltsp-upstream/ltsp/ldm-trunk/revision/1532 | 06:52 |
| wgrant | alkisg: Hmm | 07:27 |
| wgrant | alkisg: It decides it has to rewrite all the POs because the POT has changed. | 07:27 |
| wgrant | But I think the only change in the POT is this: | 07:27 |
| wgrant | "POT-Creation-Date: 2013-11-24 04:34+0000\n" | 07:28 |
| alkisg | wgrant: could you please also read my latest comment in https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/220460 ? | 07:28 |
| alkisg | I think the problem is us, we don't know how to tell intltool to not change/delete ldm.pot when there are no changes at all | 07:28 |
| alkisg | I think that intltool should be clever enough to not change even the header, when there are no changes, but we don't know how to do that | 07:29 |
| wgrant | I wonder if Launchpad needs to detect that nothing has changed. | 07:30 |
| wgrant | Otherwise intltool will regenerate the same POT each time and not notice. | 07:30 |
| wgrant | Because the old one isn't stored in the branch, so intltool can't see it to know that there are no updates. | 07:30 |
| alkisg | That would be the ideal solution, yes, but gtv said in my launchpad question that it's hard to implement | 07:31 |
| alkisg | So, maybe us putting back ldm.pot in the source tree and having intltool not update it when there are no changes, could be a good solution at least for this project... | 07:31 |
| * alkisg unfortunately doesn't know how to do that :) | 07:32 | |
| wgrant | So, I have no idea how intltool works, I'm afraid. | 07:38 |
| wgrant | I don't know too much about translations stuff. | 07:38 |
| wgrant | It's possible that you can fix it in your code. | 07:38 |
| wgrant | Ideally Launchpad would let you tell it to not attempt template generation, and just go with whatever's in the branch, but there's no way to do that today. | 07:39 |
| alkisg | Hmm... I think that the ldm.pot that we had in the trunk was outdated, I wonder if committing a recent one would fix the issue | 07:40 |
| alkisg | I.e. it even had wrong source code lines for some translations there | 07:41 |
| alkisg | Not just its headers.... | 07:41 |
| wgrant | Hm, possibly. | 07:45 |
| wgrant | It still leaves the issue that once it *does* diverge it'll resume committing every day, but it might fix it for now... | 07:46 |
| wgrant | But again, I have no idea how intltool does things :( | 07:46 |
| alkisg | I think that if we leave ldm.pot in the branch, and manage to tell intltool to not remove it after build, then problem solved, | 07:46 |
| alkisg | i.e. launchpad will commit an updated ldm.pot on our source tree when there are actual changes, and stop committing both .pot and .po when there aren't any changes | 07:47 |
