Description Milan Kerslager 2007-03-07 09:25:54 UTC
The dialog for adding iSCSI target has untranslateable buttom "_Add target"
(textw/partition_text.py:1705).

The type of newly created partition (ext3, physical volume (LVM), software RAID,
swap vfat) are not translateable (iw/partition_dialog_gui.py:302).

There are a lot of untranslated texts in the dialogs even they have non-fuzzy
translations in the current CVS tree on i18n.redhat.com:/usr/local/CVS. This
seems that current anaconda's POT file is not pushed to the
i18n.redhat.com:/usr/local/CVS or something similar. Could do you plese sync it?
I tested current development tree (ie. 3/6/2007).

I don't see that string listed anywhere in the source... although I see a couple
of other strings right there.  So marked them.

This has historically been done on purpose since real filesystems (ext2, ext3,
vfat) aren't actually translatable strings.  The addition of physical volume and
software RAID there make things a little bit more fuzzy.  But translating them
would unfortunately lead to some substantial breakage with things like
kickstart.  This entire area is up to be reworked for Fedora 8 at which point,
we can revisit things.

It's more just that the pot file doesn't get automatically regenerated.  I've
done so now.  I've done the pot file and am refreshing the pos now.  And I'll
send a mail to fedora-trans-list on some ways to help with this.
