Computer Janitor regression: UI strings not marked for translation

[David Planella]

Binary package hint: computer-janitor

The strings in the .ui file are not translatable, and thus appear in English regardless of the locale.

This was fixed some time ago in this commit, but it seems there has been a regression and the [type: gettext/glade] identifier is gone:

http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/maverick/computer-janitor/maverick/revision/13#po/POTFILES.in

Reverting that line on the POTFILES.in file should fix this bug.

The Makefile now generates the POTFILES.in file, but it doesn't know about this special case. I will add that to the Makefile rule.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package computer-janitor - 2.0.3-0ubuntu1

computer-janitor (2.0.3-0ubuntu1) maverick; urgency=low

  * Fixes for translation support.
    - Turn {foo} string substitutions back into %(foo)s strings since
      gettext does not yet support validation of {foo} or $foo
      substitutions. (LP: #621723)
    - Ensure that POTFILES.in has the proper type information for the
      ComputerJanitor.ui file. (LP: #612493)

The new POT template is in the queue and will be imported soon into Launchpad Translations. I've had a look at it and the strings from the .ui file are now in there, thus marking the translations task as Fix Released as well. Thanks Barry!
