Binary package hint: computer-janitor
On a current Lucid desktop computer-janitor appears untranslated, although it is translatable in Launchpad and has got quite a few complete translations.
There have been some confusions in the past with application renames, template and domain renames and such, and I'm not sure what the problem right now is.
What I've observed:
1) The debian package generates two .pot templates:
** po/computerjanitor.pot
** po/computerjanitorapp.pot
* I believe one of them is unneeded, but I'd like some developer input to confirm which one
2) The code seems to reside under computerjanitorapp
3) setup.cfg specifies the 'computerjanitor' translation domain, the same as computerjanitorapp/__init__.py
4) On computerjanitorapp/__init__.py, in setup_gettext(), the call
localedir = os.environ.get('LOCPATH', None)
I'm not too sure about (I've never heard of such environment variable)
5) In Launchpad we've got a 'computer-janitor' template, which gets exported in language packs as 'computerjanitorapp.mo'. If the domain in the application is 'computerjanitor' instead of 'computerjanitorapp', this will obviously won't work.
Changing 5) in LP is a 30 seconds job, but we should know what the application expects.
Please, let me or anyone else from the UTC team [1] know if you need any further help on this, and we'll be glad to give a hand.
