gettext: switch to default-translate "no" (1.53 KB, patch)

Description Peter Hutterer 2016-10-21 00:38:52 UTC
Coming from https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=768707

gvfs switched to gettext which appears to translate everything by default (as opposed to the previous intltool-merge). gvfs ships with a copy of polkit.its and that's not ready for this change that. It needs the diff below to switch to translation off by default, and then re-enables the two tags we want translated. It also changes the paths for those, since <action> isn't the root node they have no effect otherwise.

diff --git a/data/polkit.its b/data/polkit.its

                      translate="yes"/>
 </its:rules>

If you're happy with this, I'll get a proper patch done.

ACK, this makes sense.  (https://www.w3.org/TR/its20/#basic-concepts-overinher : The ITS default is that all elements are translatable. )

gettext: switch to default-translate "no"

The default appears to be to translate all entries. This rule never takes
effect, the path to /action/message and /action/description is wrong (/action
is not a root node). Since we wanted them to be translated, it doesn't matter.

But it also translates all other tags (vendor, allow_any, etc.) and that
causes polkit to be unhappy, it can't handle the various language versions of
"no"

** (polkitd:27434): WARNING **: Unknown PolkitImplicitAuthorization string
'tidak'

Switch to a default of "no" and explicitly include the message and description
strings to be translated.

The patch was modified for PolicyKit by Ondrej Holy <oholy@redhat.com>.

Applied, thanks!
