Settings "Display results from SCOPE" is not translated

[Kyle Nitzsche]

Since keyword support was added, agg scopes automatically get user settings to enable/disable child scopes.

PROBLEM: Theses always display in English for me.

I flashed with a --wipe:
ubuntu-device-flash --wipe --channel=ubuntu-touch/rc-proposed/bq-aquaris.en

On first boot welcome wizard I chose Spanish/Spain.

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

Need to prompt the translators, may need to up some priority settings on our templates

[Michi Henning (michihenning)]

This isn't a problem in scopes-api. I suspect the shell is responsible, seeing that it constructs the settings page.

mark as "triaged" in savilerow to indicate it affects savilerow but cannot be fixed by savilerow.

[Paweł Stołowski (stolowski)]

The string is marked translatable and available in the pot file as "Display results from %1", we're just missing translations.

[Marcus Tomlinson (marcustomlinson)]

Just to confirm Pawel's comment, the fix to localise this string was released in 0.5.4+15.10.20150601-0ubuntu1.

[David Planella (dpm)]

A call was sent to translators on the 16th of June [1], and the upstream project is translated into 23 languages already:

https://translations.launchpad.net/unity-scopes-shell/trunk

It seems like the target languages for bq are covered there too.

Depending on whether the translations are shipped in a click package or as a .deb package, the developer will need to do some work to integrate and ship the translations.

Looking at https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/wily/+source/unity-scopes-shell it seems it's shipped as a .deb package, in which case, I'd recommend using the same setup as other scopes shipped by default. In summary, it's about ensuring that the .deb package generates a .pot file on build, which boils down to:

1. Add X-Ubuntu-Use-Langpack: yes to debian/control's source record
2. Use dh_translations to generate a POT file during the build process.

still open?

[Kyle Nitzsche (knitzsche)]

invalid because the fix was in another project: unity-scopes-shell
