Currently we had hard-coded `zanata` as a name of the binary, but it can also be `zanata-cli`.
FWIW, I hardcoded 'zanata' for two reasons
- It is a light weight python client, compared to the java client which pulls in a huge dep chains. - I found the java client unreliable eg several times when pushing a new .pot file, it pushed the pot but failed to tell the server to preserve existing translations, so we lost all translations.
I'd hope the latter is fixed now, but honestly I would still not recommend using the java client, when the python client is working nicely.
Is there a particular reason you wanted to make it autodetect ?
I was not aware of the python client, I just thought that it was an older/different version of the java client. It looks like that the python client supports specifying srcdir and transdir and project-config so it can be used with the same/similar options. We can drop this patch, update po/README.md file to state that we require the python client and update the previous patch to use correct options. The difference between zanata-cli and zanata for our use-case is: | zanata-cli | zanata --------------------------- |-------------------|----------------- where libvirt.pot is | --src-dir | --srcdir where $LANG.po files are | --trans-dir | --transdir Pavel
