Hi, everybody! Could you please help me! I(and I have a team, we want
really do it) want to translate man-pages from English or Russian into
Uzbek! I heard that there are no po files in manpages. Could you please
explain me how to translate man-pages, if possible step by step (I'm not
so smart)! Excuse me, for taking your time! Thank you.
Michael Kerrisk maintains the core man page set in English. He publishes the
man pages as ordinary tarballs:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/docs/man-pages/
All you need to do is just translate the individual man pages, and assemble
and publish a similar tarball. Then, contact the maintainer of Fedora's
man-pages rpm, and figure out how you want to coordinate your work --
whether the maintainer's going to pull your tarball and publish it as a
subpackage, or you maintaining a separate rpm package, by yourself.
My personal suggestion to you is to use Docbook XML to write your man pages,
and use Docbook XSL stylesheets to translate them into both a troff format,
and a nice HTML version, from the same source.
