Description jibecfed 2016-04-11 22:29:47 UTC
Description of problem:
I installed publican-doc
I went to file:///usr/share/doc/publican-doc/
Only english version is available
But it is fully translatable in a cz and 95% in fr :
https://translate.zanata.org/iteration/view/publican-ug/3

same for publican --help : it speaks english while fr and cz are high enough to be present

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
version=v4.3.2

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install publican and publican-doc
2. go to file:///usr/share/doc/publican-doc/
3. or type publican --help

Actual results:
English only

Expected results:
should be translated

Additional info:
can we target this improvement for f24 ?
can you give us two weeks so we globally improve translations ? (I'll promote it in trans lists)

Comment 1 Jeff Fearn 🐞 2016-04-11 22:55:34 UTC
IIRC we deliberately exclude fuzzy translations upstream as it's apparently "not the right thing to do" ... what do you think Rudi?

FYI they are both easy changes, just add --showfuzzy to the publican build calls in the spec file and add ", fuzzy => 1" to the "Locale::Msgfmt::msgfmt" call in Build.PL.

Also I note there are two docs packages publican-doc and publican-releasenotes, should we combine them so installing t publican-doc, or should we ship the release notes in the main package?

Comment 2 jibecfed 2016-04-12 06:05:55 UTC
as a translator, I agree with excluding fuzzy strings. The strings to include are only "Translated" or "Validated".

I know publican crash if there is fuzzy strings, but I'm afraid you'll have to correct this in an other way : a script that clean po files.

Comment 3 Jeff Fearn 🐞 2016-04-12 06:14:45 UTC
Publican does not crash if there are fuzzy strings, which is why there are options to enable using them.

The logic for fuzzy strings is that if there are any fuzzy strings in a translation then the whole translation get's dropped. Using the options mentioned in comment one will get the behavior you are requesting.

Comment 4 Jeff Fearn 🐞 2016-08-16 01:54:49 UTC
Well too late for F24 :( It's i place for the next publican release though.

Comment 5 Fedora End Of Life 2016-11-25 07:19:53 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 23 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 23. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '23'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 23 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 6 Fedora End Of Life 2016-12-20 19:55:06 UTC
Fedora 23 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-12-20. Fedora 23 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
