Using complete 100% translation from Launchpad with 0.10 some tags that should be translated are not translated #404

Original issue 404 reported by igor2x 2009-03-03

Hi,
today I have transleded 100% of text PyChess into Slovenian language using
Launchpad: https://translations.launchpad.net/pychess/trunk/+pots/pychess

Then I have done the following:

after I had completed translation I have downloaded .mo file from
Launchpad to my Ubuntu 8.10 notebook
renamed downloaded .mo file to pychess.mo
copied pychess.mo to locale directory:
sudo cp pychess.mo /usr/share/locale/sl/LC_MESSAGES/
set privileges to file:
sudo chmod +r /usr/share/locale/sl/LC_MESSAGES/pychess.mo
started the PyChess program by using: pychess command from Terminal

What I see this version of translation is most likely for 0.8 version of
PyChess, but I have installed 0.10 Alpha 2 PyChess on my notebook, because
official 0.8.2 from Ubuntu repository had some bug that prevented me to
play on-line chess with black figures. This bug is solved by 0.10 version
downloaded from http://code.google.com/p/pychess/downloads/list and
installed by deb file.

What I have found out that 0.10 does not show correctly all tags (it shows
English version instead of my translated version) with some translations
like in Action menu, there are the following items not translated at all
despite I have translated them in Launchpad:

in Action menu Offer Pause
in Action menu: Offer Resume
in Action menu: Offer Undo
in Action menu: Resign
in Action menu: Ask to move
in View menu: Fullscreen (this is probably new tag in 0.10 version,
because I can't find it on Launchpad).
in View menu: Show Sidepanels (probably new tab)
Settings menu is in English (can't find in Launchpad, probably new in 0.10)
in Game menu | New game window has the following not translated options:
a) White player
b) Black player
c) Time control
d) No controls
e) Rapid (it looks new in 0.10)
f) Chess Variant
g) Play Normal chess
h) Play Fischer Random chess (it looks new in 0.10)
i) Play Losers chess
When closing all tabs there are two windows at top there is: Opponent
not translated
At the same window but bottom (internet game) there is no translation
with Handle and Password.
At the same window there are both bottons "Start Game" and "Connect to
FICS" are not translated.

Can you please fix all translations that was already available in 0.8 and
are now broken in 0.10 version.
Regards

The general rule about translations is upadting template.po at first RC phase only.
This is because in alpha/beta phase strings and dialogs can change, maybe new
features can land in the code etc. But if you want to work on your translations right
now for svn head, you can read about it in the PyChess's README file.

@gbtami, I was just surprised to see the same name translation strings from 0.8 does
not work in 0.10. That is little bit strange. Can't figure it out why? I think that
same name translation strings should work in next version. If this is true, a lot of
strings would already be translated. So this is why I have reported a bug - the same
translation string names from one version to next one should be working.

Can any developer check out why for example Action menu | "Offer Pause" is not the
same string in 0.8 and 0.10? The same is for all other suggested strings. If this
strings works I would be perfectly satisfied.

Is there a much work to check out and if possible repair name strings in 0.10 that
would have the same name as in 0.8? It would be backward compatible and it would make
this 0.10 version very useful for my family and my chess friends which are not very
familiar with English

Thanks a lot

You are right. Seems we did last time modifications in .glade files after generating
.po files. grrr. We will fix this in 0.10 of course.

Original comment 12. posted by igor2x 2009-03-07

@gbtami, thanks for looking into this problem.

By the way, I have done the following on Ubuntu 8.10:

I installed subversion program and then downloaded development version from
googlecode subversion using command:
svn checkout http://pychess.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ pychess-read-only
cd pychess-read-only/
run PyChess development version using: PYTHONPATH=lib/ ./pychess
I see there is no Slovenian language available in 0.10. I translated PyChess into
Slovenian using Launchpad few days ago and it looks Slovenian language hasn't been
taken into synchronization yet. So I did the following to include Slovenian language
manually:
I downloaded po file from Launchpad from
http://launchpadlibrarian.net/23572596/pychess\_pychess-sl.po
I created two subdirectories sl/LC_MESSAGES into pychess-read-only/lang/
I copied pychess_pychess-sl.po file into
pychess-read-only/lang/sl/LC_MESSAGES/pychess.po
I run PyChess again: PYTHONPATH=lib/ ./pychess
But still Slovenian language is not accepted. I get PyChess in English. Any idea how
to get Slovenian language which is at the moment not included into PyChess? Could you
please include Slovenian language into subversion development version from Launchpad.

One more question. How can I easily merge template.po from 0.10 version with my
pychess_pychess-sl.po from 0.8 version to get new version of Slovenian language that
would work for 0.10 version?

Regards

The programs using gettext read from .mo files, not from .po files when they run.

From our README:

To create po files from glade and python files, use
$ sh create_template.po.sh

To merge to files for like to update your old translation to a new PyChess
version, use
$ msgmerge oldtranslation.po newtemplate.po -o tobetranslated.po

To compile the po file to an mo file (machine readable file) use
$ msgfmt mytranslation.po -o mytranslation.mo

Original comment 15. posted by igor2x 2009-03-09

@gbtami, I have read this file, but I couldn't understand why should be generating
python files... Now I understand template.po file can be an old file...

Now I have followed you tips and successfully translated development version. Thanks
a lot for help.

One more question:
Is there any location (URL) where I could upload this 0.10 development translation.
What I would like is to give info to my friends and post info to my country chess
forum, something like:

download 0.10 deb file from URL...
install deb package
download .mo translation file from URL... (THIS LOCATION I NEED)
copy .mo file to...
etc

Original comment 16. posted by gbtami 2009-03-11

I think the best place for translations is our svn. But we dont't store generated
files there (like .mo files). So the best i can suggest is to register at some public
file sharing place, and upload the .mo file there. At least until your translations
will go into our next release.
You just have to ask lobais to give you svn access.

Committed the 0.10 version for trunk. I'm not sure about 0.8. I hope we can release
0.10 without releasing any new 0.8.x :)
Thank your very much working on translating PyChess!
