Translations aren't applied

[pafosdfkapos]

As the title says, the translations aren't applied for Agenda, although the strings are translated in Launchpad.

[Cameron Norman (cameronnemo)]

I am not at all familiar with Launchpad translations and how to implement them. It may have something to do with the recipe for the PPA, but I have no idea. I will try to look into this.

Hi Cameron. I'm junrrein from #elementary-dev.

What I told you to do is necessary, but not enough to fixing this bug.

Compare the "/po/" folders of Files (for example) : http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~elementary-apps/pantheon-files/trunk/files/head:/po/

with the one from Agenda : http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~thegreatdane/agenda-tasks/agenda-tasks/files/head:/po/

Did you notice the absence of .po files in Agenda? You have to look into how to get translations from Launchpad into that directory.

This may be of help: https://help.launchpad.net/Translations/YourProject

This looks like what we need to do (Dane, if you are listening, you have write access to lp:agenda-tasks): https://help.launchpad.net/Translations/YourProject/Exports

[Dane Henson (thegreatdane)]

I finally set up automatic export, and translations should now be appearing in the "po" folder. Is there anything else that I need to do? I noticed you (Cameron) had a branch with a few small changes. Can you tell me why those are necessary?

I just tested and installed Agenda Tasks, no Estonian translations weren't applied. The ".mo" file weren't in the required locae folder.

[Cameron Norman (cameronnemo)]

What is the output of "apt-cache policy agenda-tasks"?

[pafosdfkapos (pafosdfkapos)]

I just compiled Agenda from the branch and noticed, that the ".mo" file is located in the correct folder, but translations still aren't applied.

apt-cache policy agenda-tasks

This bug is still present, has any progress been made?

No Kristjian, i didn't understand what's wrong so any help is apreciated

[Erasmo Marín (erasmo-marin)]

I found lots of problems, related with gettext translation domain and other boring stuff...

I will commit the fix soon.

Here is the app runing with spanish translations (attachment):
