Description of problem: It would be useful to send translation to virt-manager using transifex. Module name: virt-manager VCS: Mercurial (hg.et.redhat.com) branch: tip
Francesco thanks for bringing this up. The steps needed to be taken are documented at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/L10N/FAQ#add-transifex. We need the maintainer's permission for this (CCing berrange). Also, we'll need a contact point for an admin to create a VCS user on hg.et.redhat.com for Transifex (CCing mmcgrath).
Shouldn't virt-inst also be added to Transifex?
We are not able to allow transiflex direct commit access to hg.et.redhat.com because the firewall does not allow SSH traffic from the place where Transiflex is running. The best that we can do is allow Transiflex read-only repository access so that it can obtain the up to date .pot and .po files. We would then have to periodically pull Transiflex data into the SCM repo ourselves. And yes, virtinst needs to be managed the same way as virt-manager
Roger that. Currently we only support pushes, however the feature "Manually pull from Tx periodically, instead of having it automatically push" is indeed a popular one (yum wants it too, among others). Since this involves some serious thinking and engineering work (auto merging, or, or...), its implementation might take some time. Until then, the simplest solution would be for your group to have a public hg repo created at fedorahosted which Tx can write to, and use that to pull from and Tx to push to. A second one would be to add support to just email the submissions somewhere.
Is there any progress on this bug, so far? Fedora 10 translation submission due date is 21st October...
Hello Daniel It is Software Translation Deadline tomorrow, 12-Oct. Translators would like to pass their translated PO files of virt-*, and move on other translations such as documentation. How would you like to receive them? I can open new bugs for file submission against virt-manager, virt-df, virt-mem and virt-top components respectively. Others such as virt-ctrl, virt-inst and virt-p2v have not appeared in the component section, so those can be attached here. Or can you specify the bug to attach or any alternate way? Thanks

Also I believe virt-p2v is a kind of Live CD, so it won't appear in Bugzilla.
Thanks Piotr! Any translated files for virt-ctrl and virt-p2v will be attached here. Rest I am creating new bugs.
Since there is no chance to add virt tools to Transifex, and we still have to do everything by hand, I'm closing this report.
Have you guys considered developing virt-manager in a more community friendly / open way? fedorahosted.org immediately comes to mind and supports transifex. Just 2 cents.
Mass change of component from Transifex to Website, since all our websites are handled by Transifex now.
