installation-guide not translated

[Daniel Nylander]

Debian's installation-guide has been translated to 18 languages but Ubuntu do not use them.
This guide contains interesting information for all types of users.

The installation-guide for hoary contained the proper translations.

[Matthew East (mdke)]

Thanks for your bug.

Only English is included in the website due to the fact that it was included at the last minute and we did not have time to implement translations of that document.

We are considering whether to drop translations completely on help.ubuntu.com for the next release (because in Ubuntu translated websites are generally dealt with by the local teams), so for now I will close this bug.

As far as I know, the package installation-guide contains all the relevant translations. If they are missing for you, please open a bug on the installation-guide package.

No, there are no translations in the installation-guide-i386 (and
others) packages.

installation-guide does not use Malone as its bug tracker.

What shall I do?

Regards,
Daniel

Ubuntu uses Malone as its bug tracker. I've opened the task here for you.

I can confirm that installation guide has only an English document and there are no other packages with translations on hardy.

[Matthew East (mdke)]

The guide is also not translatable - https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/+source/installation-guide/

[Rafael Proença (cypherbios)]

Will this bug be fixed?
I still cannot translate this package. Unless I overlooked, I can't seem to find the translations template for this package. I shall insist on the importance of this translations, as there are no i18nable version of the Ubuntu Installation Guide, which is a very important document.

[Colin Watson (cjwatson)]

It doesn't help that the POT files haven't been generated to match the modified source. I'll have to do something about that.

[Hendrik Schrieber (hennekn)]

Still a problem.
