Some translation templates are obsolete/unneeded

[Gabor Kelemen]

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/epiphany-browser - in universe now, template can be hidden

https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/git-core - the git-gui-glossary should probably not show up, as it is not used for real purposes, see:
https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/git-core/+pots/git-gui-glossary/hu/1/+translate

https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/gimp-help - this is a piece of documentation, we do not translate things like this

https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/base-passwd - this looks like a man page

https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/mythtv - debconf strings

https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/mythplugins - debconf too, not to be translated

https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/kubuntu-docs - in kubuntu-docs, there is a template called programming, which is no longer in the bzr branch: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/karmic/kubuntu-docs/karmic/files/head%3A/docs/ (it's called now development)

Thanks a lot for noticing and reporting this, Gabor.

Note: we should do an export before disabling templates and put the
tarballs in a public place for translators who might have been using
Launchpad to pick up if they want to send translations upstream.

[Adi Roiban (adiroiban)]

If the Ubuntu version has local changes, before disabling the templates, we should save them and give them to translators for upstream submission

[Adi Roiban (adiroiban)]

This is another template that was removed but the translations were not exported

https://translations.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/policykit-gnome

I think we should solve this problem, after the 9.10 release as we should define the process of moving templates from main to universe

[Adi Roiban (adiroiban)]

To ease the process of discovering obsolete/unneeded templates we should have a report of templates enabled in LP but with source packages in Universe.

Also it would be nice to see a list of Main source packages without translations.

Let's see if we can use https://translations.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+templates Bug #458036

[Adi Roiban (adiroiban)]

Ehe, more info available.

Thanks to Danilo we now have some Rosetta stats in a public place:
http://people.canonical.com/~danilo/ubuntu

http://people.canonical.com/~danilo/ubuntu/karmic-templates.log.gz

[Adi Roiban (adiroiban)]

I have created this wiki page for describing the status of those translations:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Translations/Upstream/Universe

I have done some exports and upload them on people.ubuntu.com.
To make life easier for translators, I have saved the template status page from Launchpad.

I am not sure if that page will not create confusion among some of the translators as those link will no longer be available.

I think that providing those files over HTTP together with a status page is better than a BZR branch.

If it's ok with you I will do the some for the other templates and disable them from Launchpad.

Cheers

[Adi Roiban (adiroiban)]

At UDS we agreed to use the format described above for exporting obsolete templates.

David will try to see if we can get a common account for ubuntu-translations team.

Meanwhile I will export the translations for the current templates and put them on my people.ubuntu.com account.

[Adi Roiban (adiroiban)]

I have disabled the templates moved to universe and request and export for them.
Will put the files here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Translations/Upstream/Universe

They were also disabled from Lucid

I have added more obsolete templates here:

Thanks for taking care of that. :)

Cheers

[Adi Roiban (adiroiban)]

Hi Arne,

Thanks for the info.

I have disabled the remaining templates since most of them were moved in universe, while update-notifier-kde is no longer a package in Lucid.
