2012-10-25 06:24:07 Mantas Kriaučiūnas summary Fine grained pkgbinarymangler invocation Add checkbox '[X] Strip translations and changelogs from packages' on the +edit page for the PPA
2012-10-25 06:36:58 Mantas Kriaučiūnas description The /CurrentlyBuilding file is being used by pkgbinarymangler to determine whether or not a package should get its translations stripped out, and whether it should produce a translations.tar.gz. It currently exports those fields: Package, Component, Suite, Purpose. Purpose can be "PRIMARY" or "PPA", which we use to determine whether or not to activate pkgbinarymangler. However, since we now want to switch to using pkgbinarymangler for OEM projects, we need a more fine-grained decision. For this it would be very helpful to have a field "PPA" with the name of the PPA, e. g. "PPA: pitti/ppa" or "PPA: oem-archive/omsk". As a workaround we can grep /etc/apt/sources.list in the buildd for the time being, but this is a bit brittle. Thank you! Currrently pkgstripfiles command isn't used automatically in PPA builds and there are no possibility to enable pkgbinarymangler for teams PPAs :( I'm Ubuntu-based distribution (Baltix GNU/Linux) developer and I need a possibility to strip translations and changelogs from some packages, which I patch, but translations strings still are identical to official Ubuntu packages, see for example https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1035219/comments/24 I've tried one workaround (created PPA named oem-archive), but this workaround doesn't work, see https://launchpad.net/~baltix/+archive/oem-archive/ Julian Edwards promised to add the checkbox on the +edit page for the PPA: [X] Strip translations from packages covered by Ubuntu language packs But it seems Julian forgot about this, so, I'm reopening this bug :) Julian Edwards (julian-edwards) wrote on 2010-07-07: > The suggestion of adding the checkbox above is the one I had in mind, > we can put it on the +edit page for the PPA and allow people to choose.
