Hello,
I somehow dared to open 'po/cs.po' file and it made me wonder what's the
life cycle of these files. Especially this file seems to be somehow
"shifted", because translations don't even match to their English
counterpart.
I doubt anybody is using Czech translation for libvirt and to be honest,
I would be enormously surprised if someone, anyone, did.
To save myself time, let's ask somewhat obvious. How to use translation?
Is LC_LANG going to do the trick?
Thanks for answers ~ yeh, I'm actually interested into the very first
question of mine - the life cycle of .po files :o)
Thanks,
Z.

Upstream, the .po files are re-generated with the latest available
translation at every release. And if that is not frequent enough for
you, running 'make dist' will regenerate the libvirt.pot master template
to the current source code strings then re-merge all existing
translation .po files to use that new template (you can also use make -C
po update-po to update just the po directory instead of creating an
entire distribution tarball).
I'm not sure where the best canonical location is for looking for the
latest available translations, nor what schedule is used by the various
translators in providing updated files for libvirt to incorporate
per-release (and it probably differs by language) (GNU projects host
translations on http://translationproject.org, but libvirt is not a GNU
project). Within the .po files, "shifted" locations are generally not a
problem (locations in the .pot file are more for reference of the
translator when translating a particular build of libvirt); gettext
itself works on string contents rather than source code locations when
actually serving up translations. Gettext also does a pretty decent job
of fuzzy matching, both to make the translator's job easier
(translations from the previous release that can carry forward to the
current release are reused) and the end user (if the end user's
translation database is older than the installed libvirt, they still get
most strings translated if there wasn't a lot of churn in string
contents in the meantime).
I doubt anybody is using Czech translation for libvirt and to be

I would be enormously surprised if someone, anyone, did.
One thing I've learned about i18n is to never be surprised at who is
using a particular translation. I'm sure that someone is using it, or
there wouldn't have been a push to provide the translation file for
inclusion in a libvirt release in the first place.

That's one way.

gives more information on how gettext translation databases are
typically used.

rubbish that's in the 'po/cs.po'.
I *think* the rough idea with the translations for things, is that there is
a web interface for doing translation stuff. The software used is called
"Transifex":
http://www.transifex.net/
The way it kind of works, is that when you have a new project (call it "myfoo"
for example), you can make sure all of the "master" text strings needing
translation are put into one file. (call it "myfoo.pot")
You then register the myfoo project with the Transifex crowd, pointing them
to the source code repository, and the myfoo.pot file in it. Transifex reads
the text strings from that file. (git://www.myfoo.org/source/myfoo.pot)
Transifex then have a web interface, where people can choose their
language (say French) and it gives them a list of each text string from that
master list.
When a person then submits the text string, Transifex saves it to its
internal database. At some point (generally before a new myfoo release)
someone from the myfoo project logs into Transifex and gets a tarball
dump of all the translated strings. These are in a format called po, and it's
one per language. i.e. myfoo_cz.po, myfoo_es.po, myfoo_fr.po, etc
The person adds these strings to the myfoo source code, and they get
included with the release. Iin theory, from this point GNU gettext makes
sure that when a user of myfoo has a locale with (say) French, then the
French translations are loaded and displayed instead of those from the
master language.
Note, this is all a really rough blow by blow concept description. There
are alternative software packages out there to Transifex, and there are
also alternative translation file formats other than .pot/po/etc. But, it
gives the idea.
Does that help at all? :)

One thing I've learned about i18n is to never be surprised at who is
using a particular translation. I'm sure that someone is using it, or
there wouldn't have been a push to provide the translation file for
inclusion in a libvirt release in the first place.
And in particular, I know of at least one rather large Open Source
software company that has a sizable development office in Brno (in the
Czech Republic, for those who don't know) ;-)
(My guess would be that many of those people use the English version,
but I'm sure they take it as a matter of personal pride to have as much
of the system as possible available in their native language.)

Well, I'm not. I'm not using localized anything. I don't even like Czech
games with couple exceptions.
Anyway, without user base and actual users, translation is a bit of
meaningless, because it must fit into context not into what translator
is able to translate or think what's good translation.
So let's foretell - it's going to suck. :)

Yup, but I must admit I forgot to push the .pot file there in ime for
0.8.7, so 0.8.7 has the localization from 0.8.6, I pushed after the release
and will probably push again in the coming week to make sure we have updated
content for 0.8.8.

This is rather overkill. Just add a po/README file to the source

Sorry for the complete lack of nicely written instructions. :(
In the meantime though, the main Transifex project site itself has what looks
to be the info you're after:
http://help.transifex.net/user-guide/getting-started.html
Maybe read the Overview paragraphs there, then skip to the "Translating"
paragraphs after it?
It seems to indicate there's an online web editor called "Lotte" that could
be used, or you can use desktop .po file editing tools. Checking in and
checking out the translation files seems to go through the URL that
Matthias gave above, rather than the normal libvirt git repos.
Does that help?

Sorry for the complete lack of nicely written instructions. :(
Doh! I blame nobody. I've pushed Czech translations up to 1201 which is
going to place Czech before Germany \o/
I just didn't want to waste time looking around, because I have to sync
.po file from libvirt git with the one at fedoraproj(btw cs.po in
libvirt is way off).
Yeah, I've asked to gain some time, because I'm on tide schedule
today(we are going to play football in the evening, yay!) :)

Please, no web tools. I'm not up LWP magic today :)
As I've noted couple lines before, I already have edited .po file and
now, I want to commit it back to fedoraproj. But I have no idea how.
Git repo is said to be open for commits, but I'm unsure. And it used to
be valid - better ask than screw up ;)

Heh. Ok, I've just been experimenting and think I've got it figured out.
(Sorry, but there's a bit of web interface stuff initially.)
1st step: Create a "Fedora Project" account:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/
(New Account, etc)
2nd step: Sign in to the libvirt transifex project
https://translate.fedoraproject.org/projects/p/libvirt/
It uses the just created Fedora Project account
3rd step: "Request to be a translator"
Once you've signed in with step 3, there's a button under the
"Translation files" heading that says something like "Request to
become a translator". Press that.
(this is where I'm personally up to, mine now says "Your request is
pending for approval.")
4th step: I think this is where you "lock" a language for translation
Czech in your case. It lets you download a .po file (which you're
already past), and then I think it lets you upload the changed version.
This "upload the changed version" is what I think you're after. :)

Zdenek,
if you still didn't managed to push your changes, let's try to not
loose your edits.
The way I do things is that I push the pot file on a regular basis
(approx monthly) to the CVS used for Fedora translations. Then I check
out the po file from the same CVS a week later or something.
I just checked out and I have new po available for nl, na and pl,
I will also extract the cs once rerun the update, then commit this to
libvirt git real soon now, then pull from git, try to see if there are
things which need fixing on your side and send your result cs.po
to me or here, then I will push this to Fedora localization CVS.
Of course if you already managed to push them there, fine, but since
I don't see an update for cs.po, it seems it's not the case,
thanks !

Morning Daniel,
no, I haven't yet, because 'cs.po' from libvirt is different than
'cs.po' at fedoraproj. So I have move things around and it doesn't go
well. I've also been AFK since I've left work, so-
Eventually, translation is at:
http://www.zeratul.org/git/?p=projects/libvirt-i18n-czech/.git;a=summary
with my time being horribly lagging behind reality(is it still
2010-12-30? :] VMs ...).

Morning Daniel,
no, I haven't yet, because 'cs.po' from libvirt is different than
'cs.po' at fedoraproj. So I have move things around and it doesn't go
well. I've also been AFK since I've left work, so-
Okay, in general the file will never match exactly, because I run
"make update-po" in the po directory before commiting them to make sure
thing like line numbers matches the current pot. I never push po back
only the pot.
So I pushed all the po from Fedora to git now, so the current state of
fedora and of git upstream should match (even if as told there will be
differences in the po files).
Eventually, translation is at:
http://www.zeratul.org/git/?p=projects/libvirt-i18n-czech/.git;a=summary
with my time being horribly lagging behind reality(is it still
2010-12-30? :] VMs ...).
It would be a shame to loose all that work, hum, I wonder how to
best collect the patch in now ... some kind of git rebase would be needed
I think.
Daniel

As I was saying, I'm writing script to get my modifications in check
with .po file from fedoraproject. I don't think there is other way. And
it works in theory, but practice - it's just "leaking" somewhere and I
can't find out where and why. I end up with either less or more
translations than is required. And more I'm trying, the worse results I
get. *sigh*
It should simply work like:
* copy .po file from fedoraproject until ^msgid
* find the very same ^msgid in modified file
* copy msgstr from modified file to copy
* repeat
Now, I realized the problem - sort of. Oh well ... ok, if you come up
with better plan, I'm open to anything. Hell, by this time I could have
had it translated again :)
Z.

Can you also ask the Fedora translation site to fix po/ca.po to quit
using CR?
