Folders with new messages are prefixed 'folder-display|'

[Chris Lord]

Binary package hint: evolution

If a folder has a new message, its name is prefixed 'folder-display|'. This has only started happening recently, I can't remember it happening before I turned my computer off last night (I updated before turning it off). Will attach a screenshot.

[Ian Redfern (ian-redfern)]

I see this too, but the only updates that seem relevant are in language-pack-gnome-en from the last 2 days, particularly:

$ strings /usr/share/locale-langpack/en_GB/LC_MESSAGES/evolution-2.8.mo | grep folder-display
folder-display|%s (%u)
folder-display|%s (%u)

[Jan Mynarik (jan-mynarik)]

I can confirm it here. I suspect language-pack as well ;-)

[Daniel Holbach (dholbach)]

daniel@bert:~$ grep folder-display evolution-2.8.0/po/en_GB.po
daniel@bert:~$

No upstream evolution translation - the string should be fixed by somebody of the team in Rosetta.

[Chris Lord (cwiiis)]

Why is this even a translatable string..?

[Bruce Cowan (bruce89-deactivatedaccount)]

I will fix it later today.

[Bruce Cowan (bruce89-deactivatedaccount)]

I have just uploaded the fixed file for approval. Fixing this by Rosetta would have been impossible as there is no search.

"Why is this even a translatable string..?"

See http://cvs.gnome.org/viewcvs/evolution/mail/em-folder-tree.c?r1=1.160&r2=1.161 :)

The clue is in the link you provided:
* Most languages should translate this as "%s (%u)". The
* languages that use localized digits (like Persian) may
* need to replace "%u" with "%Iu". Right-to-left languages
* (like Arabic and Hebrew) may need to add bidirectional
* formatting codes to take care of the cases the folder
* name appears in either direction.

Unfortunately, the PO file hasn't been approved, so I uploaded another one. This means this bug is not fixed by 1:6.10+20060924.

[Bruce Cowan (bruce89-deactivatedaccount)]

I'm in the middle of wading through the 4529 strings in rosetta trying to find the bad one, it will be fixed soon though.

[Bruce Cowan (bruce89-deactivatedaccount)]

I have fixed in Rosetta, it was string #6383. It was translated incorrectly at 2006-09-02 02:06:27 BST, so this might be why it was done wrongly (early in the morning).

[Chris Rose (chris-vault5)]

Will this be fixed for edgys release? Not sure if a freeze blocks this.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

if it's already fixed on rosetta it'll be fixed for edgy, language packs are going to be updated before edgy

[gcranston (gcranston)]

No idea... I just reported the thing.

I have fixed this bug in Rosetta, so hopefully when the next language pack update is available, that will fix this bug.

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

New langpacks were uploaded yesterday, this should be fixed now:

$ msgunfmt /usr/share/locale-langpack/en_GB/LC_MESSAGES/evolution-2.8.mo | grep -C 1 folder-display

msgid "folder-display|%s (%u)"
msgstr "%s (%u)"

[Chris Jones (cmsj)]

I can confirm that this is fixed here after today's updates

[Bruce Cowan (bruce89-deactivatedaccount)]

Sorry this took so long to fix, neither of my 2 PO file uploads were approved (or rejected), so I had to fix it manually in Rosetta, which took 2 days as there are a lot of strings in Evolution. (4530)

[Chris Rose (chris-vault5)]

Its working a treat now -- thanks for your hard work!

No problem.
