PO files are not like most source code - there is embedded generated data which often causes patches to fail. Patches for PO files are frequently useless. > The attached .po is different than the one in svn, so I'm a bit > confused. Is that intentional? Of course it is. This will be a new upstream release, as with many runtime PO translations. This isn't debconf.

It really isn't a lot of work to add a few untranslated strings or at least coordinate with the existing Polish translator with regard to the errors in his translation. Missing and fuzzy strings *are* bugs in existing translations. Attaching the patched pl.po for the benefit of the existing translators in the hope of getting *someone* to provide a correct and fully translated PO file for gpdftext in Polish. Please send to 691...@bugs.debian.org for inclusion into the next upstream release. pl: 41 translated messages, 6 fuzzy translations, 4 untranslated messages. Jakub: If you are going to file bugs about existing translations, *please* always coordinate with the Last-Translator explicitly set in every PO file *and* supply a full PO file, *not* a patch. If you are not willing to do this, please confine your l10n "error fixes" to the debian-l10n-polish@l.d.o list so that the complete PO file can be sent to the maintainers. There are very good reasons why l10n teams in Debian only work on the basis of complete PO files, not patches. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
