potfiles out of sync

[Gustavo Franco]

Hi mvo,

The rosetta potfiles are out-of-sync with our bzr trees. I'm opening this bug because i'm not sure about the exact workflow to bring back the changes made using rosetta.

Do we need to download each potfile from rosetta and merge? If yes, i can take this task and close this bug. I hope you receive mails (as gdebi product registrant) with the files with the power to accept/reject them; with that in mind it would be good if you do the potfile sync thing or forward the messages to me.

I changed status to Confirmed.

Ack, this is annoying. I asked on #launchpad how I can make rosetta automatically pull the latest pot from bzr and hope to get some feedback there. In the meantime I uploaded a new pot manually. But manual uploads are really not a great workflow :/

Here is my feedback from #launchpad:

<mvo> hi, I got a question about launchpad projects and their translations - will rosetta automatically pull the latest pot file for my project from bzr or will I have to do this manually? or will it use some other source (like the ubuntu package)?
<henninge> hi mvo, there is no automated update process implemented (yet).
 mvo: there is a blueprint for syncing with bzr https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/rosetta/+spec/rosetta-translates-branch
<mvo> henninge: thanks, so the workflow would be to manually upload the pot on each string change?
 (currently)
<henninge> mvo: yes, that is the current situation.
<mvo> thanks for confirming henninge, not ideal but at least I know now that I have not overlooked a checkbox or something :)

Should be in sync again.
