Publican combined PO files like install-guide
by Sulyok Peti
Hi,
I would like to find a way to make the translation of the large PO file
of the install-guide suitable for teamwork. So far, my idea is to get
the translators download the small PO-s from the repository, then merge
them into the large combined PO.
For example: The translator downloads the
Account_Configuration-common.po file from
http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=docs/install-guide.git;a=tree;f=hu;h=7...
translates it, sends it to the maintainer, who merges it like this:
msgmerge -C Account_Configuration_common.po \
docs-install-guide.f11-tx.hu.po install-guide.pot \
> docs-install-guide.f11-tx.hu.po.new
This can be repeated for several PO-s from different translators, and
then the large PO can be uploaded via Transifex.
The small PO files can also be extracted from the large combined PO as
follows:
msgmerge -C docs-install-guide.f11-tx.hu.po /dev/null \
Account_Configuration_common.pot \
> Account_Configuration_common.hu.po
What do you think about this?
Would this kind of functionality be useful in Transifex? I mean download
a partial PO generated from a combined PO, and upload a partial PO
merged into a combined PO.
BR,
Peti

Simplified Chinese of Fedora 11 Installation Guide cannot be opened and viewed
When I viewed it from the site directly(click the view button), there
is a message displayed:Page unavailable
Then I downloaded the po file, and opened it in Gtranslator, it lost
response. I tried to open it in Poedit, the message showed
that:"Failed to convert pofile to unicode". And the details was as
follows:

Finally got in contact with Richard Allen (FAS: RichardAllen
and/or Ra ?) which is registered team coordinator for
Icelandic. As he's a bit out of the game now, I think it's
best if I take on the role of sponsoring new translators.

Release Notes German Translation error
by Susan Lauber
Greetings,
Can someone please take a look at an errors in the de.po file - line 3968
#. Tag: para
#: Kernel.xml:145
#, no-c-format
msgid "Fedora 11 does not include the <package>kernel-source</package>
package provided by older versions since only the
<package>kernel-devel</package> package is required now to build
external modules."
msgstr "Fedora 11 enthält keine <package>kernel-source</package>, die
bei älteren Version geliefert wurden. Stattdessen werden nur die
<package>kernel-devel</package> zum Bauen externer Module benötigt,
wie bereits im Abschnitt <xref linkend=\"sn-Kernel_Flavors\"/>
beschreiben."
PROBLEM: The <xref linkend=\"sn-Kernel_Flavors\"/> needs to be
removed. It is trying to link to a section that does not exist. xref
would normally substitute the section name so I believe that the
sentence will need some rewritting.
The other error I already commented out - It looks like it was a
mistaken paste but you may want to review it as well. If they belong
let me know and I will add the XML markup for email addresses.
[[de.po line 2886]]
#. Tag: term

typo in release-notes
by Domingo Becker
In the section btrfs - next-generation Linux filesystem, there's a phrase
"To enable btrfs pass <command>icantbelieveitsnotbtr</command> as a
boot potion."
I guess it meant "... as a boot option."
