Bug Description

Binary package hint: amarok

In Launchpad, the Korean translations (ko) are imported instead of the Kurdish (ku) translations. This has happened in Edgy and Feisty before, now it is the case in Gutsy.

When I reported this a year ago on the mailinglist, Carlos Perelló Marín wrote:

  "It's a bug from upstream, they have the same translators and the header says is for Korean. It also affects the 'Lao' language."

While I manually corrected most in ku, there are still the Korean translations now in the Launchpad database. They should be removed.

When I click on "Also affects: Upstream..." I get the following error:

There is no project in Launchpad named "konpfer-ubuntu". You may want to search for it, or register it if you can't find it.

This bug is not caused by Amarok, and therefore can't be fixed by Amarok. Actually I think it should either be reassigned to kde-i18n or marked as invalid.
Actually the kurdish translation does include the korean translation, not much we can do about this, maybe it was intent? Maybe not? I'm really not in the position to do anything about this.

Probably the reassignment has to be done in the KDE bugtracker, it is not possible here. However I can assure you that it was NOT intent, since Korean and Kurdish have absolutely nothing in common. ;)

So is this an issue? If so, it should probably be redirected to kde-i18n as Harald suggested.

Is this fixed in Amarok 1.4.8?

We have corrected all the translations in Launchpad, so they do not show up anymore. in Amarok 1.4.8 in Gutsy.

However, in Hardy translations, the Korean translations are still present as "packaged" (while being superseded by the Kurdish translations in most places), so I think the problem is still there.

How would LP effect this issue? The wrong translations should be superseeded by Amarok 1.4.8 which ships fixed upstream translations AFAIK.

There are Kurdish translations for Amarok upstream, but Kurdish is not yet an officially supported language of KDE. Therefore I guess that the Kurdish translations are not yet in the tarball.

But since they are in Launchpad, the upstream translation is superseeded by language-pack-kde-ku, isn't it? That's where launchpad comes in.

Hardy Alpha 6 shows the Korean translations for Amarok, although it is also version 1.4.8.

The Kurdish language import of Amarok: http://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/+source/amarok/+pots/amarok/ku/+translate
looks quite different from the Korean one: http://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/+source/amarok/+pots/amarok/ko/+translate

Also the upstream tarball includes 2 different translations: http://aplg.kollide.net/amarok/l10n/amarok-1.4.8.html

I guess the current language packs in Hardy just aren't updated, or this issue is only caused by wrong LP translations (as suggested in http://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/+source/amarok/+pots/amarok/ku/3/+translate ).

 I change the bug's package to language-pack-kde-ku-base and remove my assignement.

Closing, language-pack-kde-ku-8.04+20080317 has no Korean.
