Localized Kubuntu documents missing

[Martin Böhm]

In Kubuntu Edgy Eft the Kubuntu-specific documentation (About Kubuntu, Kubuntu Desktop Guide etc.) is present only in C (English), although it is translated into other languages in Rosetta. Those languages should probably be included as well. Translations of those documents were present in Kubuntu 6.06.

kubuntu-docs package does not contain any translations.

Rich,

What needs to be done to get this bug fixed? Is there something that Riddell needs to do or is it something that one of us can do?

Let's get this solved

[Bruno (bruno666-666)]

I confirm that this bug affects Edgy and Feisty.
I think that kubuntu-docs should include the translations because it was in the Dapper package.

[Bruno (bruno666-666)]

After a quick look, the content of kubuntu-docs 6.10 source package seems very strange to me, at least it's very different from release 6.06. There's no .po files in it, and some bash scripts like translate.sh are present.
I wonder if there's a problem in building the source package or if the way to translate kubuntu-docs has completely change since release 6.06 (but I didn't see anything about that in the changelog).

[Rich Johnson (nixternal)]

This isn't going to get fixed in Edgy and will be taken care of with Feisty.

Reopening, in progress. Debdiff is locally on laptop, when I get home this evening and it is approved, fix will get uploaded. Sorry for the confusion!

[Bruno (bruno666-666)]

It's really a good news (I was very disappointed by your last comment ;)), thanks for your great work Richard !

If anybody is still using Edgy ;) I have committed the fixes for translations :) ENJOY!

ubuntu-sru subscribed, pitti please review above two patches for -proposed

[Rich Johnson (nixternal)]

Any updates on this?

[Bruno (bruno666-666)]

Unfortunately, this issue is still present on an up-to-date Kubuntu Feisty (with backport repository activated), and also on Gutsy...
That's quite frustrating for translators and for non-English speaking users ;)

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

Ah, "fix committed" is in appropriate for an SRU bug (see policy), thus it fell off my radar. I'll review it on my archive day on Friday.

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

Quite intrusive build system changes, but if you tested the resulting packages, it's fine for me. Please go ahead and upload.

[Rich Johnson (nixternal)]

Jonathan, when you get back can you upload this package and close this bug please. Thank you! Thanks Martin for the 'ack'.

[Jonathan Jesse (jjesse)]

Has Jonathan uploaded this yet? If not can we get this uploaded ASAP?

Thanks,

Jonathan

[Guillaume Martres (smarter)]

The bug seems to be fixed with latest kubuntu-docs package for Gutsy.

[Jonathan Jesse (jjesse)]

Rich,

Can you take a look at this bug and see what is going on?

Jonathan

[Rich Johnson (nixternal)]

@Riddell: Poke on this one? Are we going to upload the fixed package, or just close this out since Edgy is within 6 months of EOF?

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

No action here for quite some time, and Edgy is becoming old. Please reopen if you are still interested in fixing this and upload to edgy-proposed.
