Says it is an error and all that.
Thanks for noticing this, both seem the same problem, po2debconf seems to only do the __ (and may be _) replacements when there is a po dir (even if empty). Since the __ stuff was added later, I only built packages using debian/po to test the new feature with the __ stuff, and could not imagine that this might affect. The key may be that $podir is passed to $PODEBCONF_LIB/intltool-merge and if empty things get messed up. I will add an explicit --write-elanguages option and remove current --no-elanguages option, along with better documentation. This will be tomorrow, expect a fixed package then. Will also do nothing unless a debian/po dir is present. Cheers, -- Agustin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
