Hi Paul,
Thanks for quick reply.
I guess I was not clear. I was not asking for xml tags to translate, I
was thinking of captions for figures, sections and chapters (i.e.
"Figure 7.7. HTTP Setup Dialog" or "Chapter 7. Installation
Methods").
While po file for Install Guide contains strings "HTTP Setup Dialog" and
"Installation Methods" for translation, I could not find strings
"Figure" and "Chapter". Funny part is that I actually translated
those
strings somewhere, but I made mistake when I did it, and now I can not
find it anymore :).
Ah, I understand now! Those are generated automatically at build time
by the DocBook XSLT, and not under our control. If they are missing a
translation, you might need to make contact with the DocBook maintainers
(
http://www.docbook.org is probably a good place to start). Thanks for
setting me straight.
