Upstream translation not imported/synced

[Milo Casagrande]

There has been a similar report recently, but I'm not sure if it was the exact same one.

If I look at the POT template for simple-scan it looks like it is up to date with the upstream one: same strings count, same strings.

The PO file though doesn't seem to have been imported, at least for the Italian language. The last changed date in Launchpad is set to 2016-03-15, but the upstream translation for the 3.28 cycle has been completed (and it was complete also for the 3.26 cycle).

A few links to check things out:

* The Launchpad Italian translation: https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/bionic/+source/simple-scan/+pots/simple-scan/it/+translate
* The upstream Italian translation: https://l10n.gnome.org/vertimus/simple-scan/master/po/it

Upstream hasn't branched 3.28 yet, so I wonder if this is just a matter of waiting for a new release to be imported in Launchpad.

On a side note: simple-scan doesn't seem to be the only package with this "problem" (template in sync with upstream, but not the actual translations). I could see at least evolution-data-server, and gnome-online-accounts.

Hi Milo,

I see that automatic translation sharing was set up for simple-scan, which may be the reason why the .po files were not imported when the package was built. However, that sharing setup is broken...

I just disabled the translation sharing. Hopefully this makes a difference next time simple-scan is built.

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson (gunnarhj)]

evolution-data-server might suffer from broken translation sharing as well, but let's try that route for simple-scan first.

I see no issue with gnome-online-accounts. The .po files from version 3.27.92 were imported as expected when the package was built earlier today.

To the sponsor: Asking for a no-change rebuild of simple-scan to check if disabling translation sharing makes a difference.

I've uploaded simple-scan 3.28.0-0ubuntu1 which has only translation changes from the current release.

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson (gunnarhj)]

That upload seems to have brought the upstream translations of simple-scan into LP. :)

Encouraged by that I just disabled translation sharing for evolution-data-server. Can someone please make a no-change rebuild of evolution-data-server?

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson (gunnarhj)]

The .po files were not imported to LP as a result of the latest evolution-data-server build either. (Only the template was.)

At the same time I notice that my unlinking of the upstream translation project was automatically undone. I'm not quite sure what's going on here.

@Sebastien: Any advice how to proceed?
