Description Enrico Scholz 2002-07-12 17:43:11 UTC
I will attach a patch fixing several format-string errors in the po/*.po files.

In ko.po I removed two messages because I do not know how to fix them; in pl.po
and is.po I added format-elements but because I do not speak these languages I
do not know if these are the correct places.


A lot of .po files are having incorrect headers which are failing to work with
recent rawhide-gettext. Does it make sense to send patches (which are just
adding correct charsets and *removing* default strings) or are the .po files
maintained at another place?

The po files for rpm are maintained at cvs.rpm.org.
SInce that's a different location than all other
Red Hat sources, the po files often are not made
available for translation through "normal"
channels.

In general, patches with PO files are tricky,
so significant changes should include the
entire file, not a patch.

Thanks for noticing and sending the patch
however :-) Should be in rpm-4.1-0.47 when
built.
