This is the top directory for ALL translation files for Debian Installer
|
| 2 |
packages.
|
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
By putting a xx.po (or xx_YY.po) file in one of the "sublevel" directories,
|
| 5 |
based on the template.pot file you'll find in each of them, the translation
|
| 6 |
it contains will be spread out to ALL Debian Installer packages under the
|
| 7 |
packages directory.
|
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
DO NOT do this without authorization by the Debian Installer i18n
|
| 10 |
coordination team.
|
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
The PO files headers will be spread out to all D-I packages. If you want
|
| 13 |
to give credit to several translators, please use the header comment lines
|
| 14 |
rather than the "Last-Translator" line. In such case, the Last-Translator
|
| 15 |
line should rather contain the team name, similarly to the
|
| 16 |
Translation-Team line.

Sublevels:
|
| 19 |
----------
|
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
The current rules for which strings belong in which sublevels are as follows:
|
| 22 |
1: strings used in default installs on common architectures (i386, amd64)
|
| 23 |
2: general strings not used during default installs
|
| 24 |
3: expert strings (low prio templates or related to e.g. RAID)
|
| 25 |
4: specific to less-popular arches (arm, powerpc, mips, sparc) or used in
|
| 26 |
experimental features
|
| 27 |
5: same for high-end architectures (hppa, ia64, s390), hobby architectures
|
| 28 |
(alpha, m68k) arches and old components
|
| 29 |

Synchronisation script:
|
| 31 |
-----------------------
|
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
The synchronisation script is run at regular intervals by one of the
|
| 34 |
i18n coordinators. Please see the i18n documentation on
|
| 35 |
http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/doc/i18n for details.
|
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
Current schedule:
|
| 38 |
-----------------
|
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
-daily runs at 22:47 CET on the trunk branch
|
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
Triggering immediate runs:
|
| 43 |
--------------------------
|
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
The D-I team members can trigger runs of the l10n-sync script by
|
| 46 |
issuing the following on alioth.debian.org:
|
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
touch ~bubulle/d-i/l10n/.run-sync
|
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
Stopping the automated runs:
|
| 51 |
----------------------------
|
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
Automated runs can be stopped (in case the script becomes crazy) by
|
| 54 |
using "run=0" in packages/po/run-l10n-sync
|
| 55 |
|
| 56 |
Enforcing the script runs:
|
| 57 |
--------------------------
|
| 58 |
|
| 59 |
In case the script is disabled by "run=0", it can be manually run by
|
| 60 |
using the "--force" switch. Use with care: this should be reserved to
|
| 61 |
cases where all i18n coordinators are away and the script became
|
| 62 |
crazy. In that case, another d-i developer can still run l10n-sync
|
| 63 |
from time to time, manually.
