[MacPorts] #42311: kde-l10n-* kmymoney.po from the extragear-office package not included
#42311: kde-l10n-* kmymoney.po from the extragear-office package not included -------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: malmuc@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.2.1 Keywords: | Port: kde-l10n- -------------------------+-------------------------------- In order to localize the kmymoney4 port I had to download kmymoney.po from l10n.kde.org and manually create the .mo file within the LC_MESSAGES folder. It would be great to have the translation for kmymoney (or probably all extragear packages?) included in the kde-l10n-* ports. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/42311> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

The fact that the extragear translations are not included in the standard packages is therefore the choice of the KDE team. We could think about adding a Portfile for extragear translations, but these files are not, to my knowledge, distributed through standard packages, and would have to be downloaded from the repository. The issue is that the svn repositories are currently being taken down (http://community.kde.org/Sysadmin/SVNInfrastructureShutdown), so that I am not sure about which location should be used, as this is exactly the transition period. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/42311#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

This implies that including these translations would require to create all the installation structure internally in Macports. Furthermore, another issue is that there are messages for both very different softwares and languages, so that the Portfile would have to be huge (installing everything), or be a multitude of small ports by either software or language, which would be very difficult to maintain. Compared to these issues, manually installing the required file does not seem to much of a hassle, or, if a more automated way should made, it should be prepared upstream beforehand before it could be used by package managers. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/42311#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
