Description Magnus Larsson 2006-09-13 18:16:19 EDT

Description of problem:
translate/install-guide/fedora-install-guide.pot is in DOS format.
The problem is that when you do msgmerge you get Windows CRLF copied into the
PO-file as well, and then you get parse errors when you try to check it in...

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
latest

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the POT file in Emacs or vi and see the ^M chars...
2. 
3.
  
Actual results:
Contains a DOS CR+LF on every msgstr line.

Expected results:
Should not contain any DOS CR LF...

Comment 1 Paul W. Frields 2006-09-13 19:12:41 EDT

The POT file was sent out in standard UNIX format (LF only).  If there is a
problem with it, it must have happened before or during import.  I am cc'ing the
Translation Project chair so he can look at the problem, but it's definitely not
on this end.

Comment 2 Magnus Larsson 2006-09-14 00:08:40 EDT

It seems it is only that file. It's like someone opened it Windows Notepad and
then checked it in with CVS on a UNIX platform...
Usually CVS automatically translates the files correctly on the platform it is
running.

I can fix this problem in 1 min, but I'm not sure if I am allowed to fiddle
around with the POT files. So I wait...

Created attachment 136263 [details]
Converted and unconverted(DOS) pot file

Comment 5 Magnus Larsson 2006-09-14 10:24:25 EDT

I added a tar file with 2 files so you can compare:
fedora-install-guide.pot.fromcvs
fedora-install-guide.pot

The first one is the one directly from CVS (v1.2).
The second one is the corrected one with no DOS newlines.

To get the translated file I simply did:
cvs checkout fedora-install-guide.pot
dos2unix fedora-install-guide.pot

diff fedora-install-guide.pot.fromcvs  fedora-install-guide.pot

Thanks Magnus for your finding.
I find no reason to commit this to CVS, so commiting update file to CVS
