| *** Rinchen|afk is now known as Rinchen | |
| <Rinchen> nobody but us chickens LaserJock | |
| <LaserJock> darn | |
| <LaserJock> :-) | |
| <LaserJock> I was hoping to find carlos or an LP person | |
| <LaserJock> there are a couple old bugs that I was trying to look at | |
| <Rinchen> try #launchpad | |
| <LaserJock> Bug #82506 and Bug #75337 in particular | |
| <Rinchen> For rosetta issues, #launchpad is the place to be :-) | |
| <LaserJock> well, I don't think it's particularly a rosetta issue | |
| <LaserJock> but I don't really know, I have 0 knowledge of translations | |
| <Rinchen> Lemme have a quick peek at those, one moment | |
| <Rinchen> have you tried to contact Ben about the issues? | |
| <Rinchen> I don't know offhand whether tuxpaint uses po files or similar which would be compatible with rosetta | |
| <Rinchen> If it is, then perhaps tuxpaint isn't being built with translations since Ben didn't know they existed. | |
| <LaserJock> Ben Armstrong? | |
| <Rinchen> yes | |
| <Rinchen> also I think the assigned to is incorrect. | |
| <LaserJock> yeah | |
| <LaserJock> I'm talking to Ben now | |
| <LaserJock> apparently the Czech translator got ahold of him | |
| <Rinchen> ok, I'm going to see if any of the LP team is around and see if they can set the assigned field. Not sure myself. | |
| <Rinchen> excellent | |
| <LaserJock> I can set it, what should it be? | |
| <LaserJock> Ben told the person that they should submit translations upstream | |
| <Rinchen> that makes sense | |
| <Rinchen> Ben needs to update the package information for it to reflect who the upstream provider/product is. | |
| <Rinchen> right now I'm not smart enough to select it manually | |
| <LaserJock> who the upstream provider of the translations? | |
| <Rinchen> no, the package: https://beta.launchpad.net/ubuntu/feisty/+source/tuxpaint-stamps/+packaging | |
| <Rinchen> er sorry | |
| <Rinchen> I default to beta | |
| <LaserJock> me too ;-) | |
| <Rinchen> nifty. then just sent the release you want to associate... dapper, edgy, feisty (which no workie) | |
| * LaserJock is somewhat lost | |
| <Rinchen> sorry, I'll explain | |
| <Rinchen> Ben says that for tuxpaint to be properly translated, it has to be down upstream (i.e. not in rosetta). | |
| <Rinchen> For us to assign the problem upstream, we need the upstream package information. It's blank now. | |
| <LaserJock> ah | |
| <Rinchen> If translations will never be possible in tuxpaint using rosetta then we'll probably list the bug as wontfix and have the LP guys see if they can remove the option to translate it | |
| <Rinchen> so others don't waste their time | |
| <Rinchen> I need to be educated on how that works actually. | |
| <Rinchen> Upstream is a bit fuzzy to me :-) | |
| <LaserJock> tuxpaint is the upstream | |
| <LaserJock> launchpad.net/tuxpaint/ | |
| <LaserJock> but I'm not sure if that means anything | |
| <Rinchen> Yeah, that's the part that is fuzzy to me. I'll be getting more training over the next few weeks on this but it doesn't help me now. :-) | |
| <Rinchen> ah see this? https://translations.beta.launchpad.net/tuxpaint/+translations | |
| <LaserJock> hmm, tuxpaint as an i18n ML | |
| <LaserJock> I did | |
| <Rinchen> Yeah. Well, that's about as far as I can go. Ben and the LP team know more about this than I do. Sorry I couldn't really help. | |
| <LaserJock> np | |
| <Rinchen> danilos will probably come back here and laugh at me. :-) | |
| <LaserJock> well, thanks for pinging people in #launchpad | |
| <LaserJock> I'm in over my head on this one but maybe it'll get to the right people :-) | |
| <Rinchen> I tried. :-) Most of the LP guys normally work M-F but have so much work they often end up working weekends too | |
| <Rinchen> I'm going to be filling in the holes in my launchpad knowledge over the course of the next few weeks so hopefully I'll become better at this. | |
| <Rinchen> although, it'll probably take me a few months to absorb it all. | |
| <superted> if i download feisty fawn herd 4, can i then make changes to rosetta, download the .po file and use it on my system ? |
