"delete" and "cancel" buttons not translated

[Jean-Marc]

Hello,

"delete" and "cancel" buttons are not translated in French (see attachment) and do not appear in translation template.

Thank you

Jean-Marc

Hi Jean-Marc,

I just looked in the source code of the last Xpad version and it looks like it that the button texts are translatable.
Or there is something wrong in the program, or it has been fixed in the past and you are using an older version.

The latest released version is v4.5

Which version of Xpad are you using?

Now thinking longer than 5 minutes and reading your message again, I realize the translation templates might not have been updated. Still I am curious about the version you are using. :)

Hi Arthur,

I use the version 4.5

Hi Jean-Marc,

The workings of the translation mechanism are not totally clear to me, so I am looking for some advice.
I noticed that all the .po files (one for each language) are not updated; they are not aligned with the source code.

According to this article I should not update the PO files myself; it should be performed by the translators.
https://wiki.gnome.org/TranslationProject/DevGuidelines/Localize%20using%20gettext%20and%20intltool

I also noticed that the .pot file is missing in the po folder.

Do you have any experience with the intltool?
Do you know who has to run which command?

[Jean-Marc (m-balthazar)]

Sorry Arthur,

I have no experience with intltool and could not explain you the working.

I downloaded the PO folder.
I think the POT template file is not updated.
As I understood, PO translations files are automatically updated by Launchpad Translations.

Hi Jean-Marc,

I have recreated the missing POT file and added it to the 4.6 branch.
Let's see if this fixes the issue overnight.

To be continued...

[Arthur Borsboom (arthurborsboom)]

For the Dutch language, the template seems to be up-to-date.
I have been able to translate the new items.

How does this work out for you?

[Jean-Marc (m-balthazar)]

Hi Arthur,

It works fine for me, I just make some suggestions in French.

Thank you
