Translation strings not available in development version

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. I downloaded source code from subversion system
2. I have generated po file from glade and python files
3. I have merged po files: old translation and new translation
4. I have translated all (100%) of strings to my language
5. I have created mo file
6. Copied mo file to language location path
7. Start PyChess and there are some strings that are not translated and as
I see not included in generated translation po file.
a) Settings | Preferences | "Sidepanels" tab is not translated
b) Settings | Preferences | Sidepanels tab | Disable button is not translated
c) Connect to FICS | "Adjourned" tab is not translated
d) Connect to FICS | "Adjourned" tab | all of the buttons (Preview, Abort,
Draw, Resign, Resume) are not translated
e) Connect to FICS | "Adjourned" tab | Is online | "False" & "True" are not
translated.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Instead of Slovenian translation I see English words. I have searched po
files for above strings and this strings are missing.

Does it happen every time?
Yes

What version of the product are you using?
development version from source subversion system

Did you use an installed version of PyChess or did you run in from a
tarball/svn?
svn

I have searched the po file for above strings and this strings are not 
available. It
looks like generating po file misses some of the strings.

Seems these strings are not yet marked for tranlation yet.

gbtami, is there a lot of work to mark this strings for translations? I would 
love to
see this few strings included, that I can translate. :)

Not a big work, I will do. But I have to say, I don't know whether these part 
of code
will be in the final 0.10 release. At least the sidepanel tab has issues:

gbtami, if it is not a big bother it would be nice if this will be in 0.10 
alfa. If
the code will not be stable enough for final release there will not be any 
problem,
just some strings that would be translated too much.

I'v just committed some more translatable strings to svn. Can you please test 
it, and
report if i missed something. thx

Hi,
I have downloaded new version from svc, generated new .po file, merged old .po 
with
new .po and look into change.

1. All above strings in my first post are included in new .po file except this 
one
(False, True is not translated):
Connect to FICS | "Adjourned" tab | Is online | "False" & "True" are not
translated.

==============================
2. Game | New game | Time Control
==============================
It looks like following two strings are partially translated instead of whole 
string.
It looks like in program there are multiple strings instead of just one that is
available in .po file (.po file has correct string).

#: glade/newInOut.glade:612
msgid "Rapid:\t15 min + 10 sec/move"

#: glade/newInOut.glade:678
msgid "Normal:\t40 min + 15 sec/move"

==============================
3. Game | New game | Time Control
==============================
Click on icon at right site. Window opens with Minutes: and Gain:
Gain is not translated althrough it is included in .po file and I have 
translated the
string.

#: glade/fics_lounge.glade:2282
msgid "Gain:"

==============================
4. Game | New game | Chess Variant
==============================
Second and third string:
- Play No castle chess: "Play" and "chess" strings are not translated. I think 
it
would be the best to have one string for all 4 words, because in Slovenian 
there is
not the same words order like in English so it sounds stupid. This is a 
sentence and
should be one single string for translation.
- Play Lossers chess: it looks like there are multiple strings in program, but 
in .po
file there is the following string that should be replaced in program:

#: glade/newInOut.glade:945
msgid "Play Lossers chess"

Regards

Hi,
by the way, I have attached new Slovenian translation to
http://code.google.com/p/pychess/issues/detail?id=404
See last post and download attachment 
PyChess_slovenian_translation_version_2.tar.gz
Untar file and cd to ver_0.10 where there are new .po and .mo files.

igor2x, thx for testing the new template.po! I will look after the remaining 
issues.

Hi,
instead of my 4 suggestion - to create one string for all text, it could also 
be:
Play chess: No castle
and then just change "No castle" with "Lossers" etc and have very little to 
change -
no new strings.

This would make more sense in translation where words order of string is 
important.

Hi,
add 1) maybe instead of True/False in Connect to FICS | "Adjourned" tab | Is 
online |
"False" & "True" that are not translated could be "Yes/No". You know "Yes/No" 
is more
friendly, "True/False" is too computer oriented. So I suggest to use Yes/No 
variant.
Regards

New round. Fixed in several places, including the gettext suggestions.
We have some places with "min" string yet, but that's enough for today :)

Hi,
all above problems are now correctly solved. I have translated them to 
Slovenian and
changed/approved all changes.

I have attached new Slovenian translation to

Hi,
I have found one more string that is not translated. If game gets adjourned and 
I
close the window I get warning message. Please see attached picture. I have made
square around not translated strings.

Yesterday I have suggested to change True/False from FICS game Adjourned tab to
Yes/No, but now I have found there is on Seeks/Chalangers Rating tab which has
"Rated/Untrated" content. This is better idea. So I suggest if you can rename 
Yes/No
buttons at Adjourned tab in Is online column to "Online/Not online".

Another round. Fixed the missing ones on save dialog, changed yes/no to 
online/not
online, and fixed the ngettext() usage for plural forms.

Regarding the chess type names (standard/blitz/etc.) i suggested this before to
Thomas, but he argued that these are not in our code, but coming from a FICS 
server,
and it can be a german or any other localized server. Maybe we can try to 
translate
these if they are in english, and don't touch otherwise.

Hi,
thanks a lot. I have translated this new strings and uploaded file to
http://code.google.com/p/pychess/issues/detail?id=404
See last post and download attachment 
PyChess_slovenian_translation_version_4.tar.gz
Untar file and cd to ver_0.10 where there are new .po and .mo files.

A world about singular/plural. You added this one now when I found out there is
untranslated save dialog: "There are %d games with unsaved moves. Save changes 
before
closing?" I don't like this approach of singular/plural, because it doesn't 
line up
with all languages, especially Slovenian, which is one of the most complicated
languages in the world. You see in Slovenian language there are not only 
singular and
plural, but there is also dual (for two people). Slovenian is one or two of the
languages in the world that has duality. But this is not the only problem. In
Slovenian language last letter (or last two letters) of word is changing 
according to
the numbers of items for example igra (= game) has this variations according to
number of items: 1 igra (one game), 2 igri (two games), 3 igre (tree games), 4 
igre
(four games) 5 iger (five games). What is more "beautiful" last latter is gender
dependent (English doesn't have such a gender dependencies). So what I propose 
is to
use only one variant, for example for above string use: "There is at least one 
game
with unsaved moves. Save changes before closing?" This is independent of number 
of
games to save. I also see no point of telling user how many games he have 
unsaved if
he can't choose which one to save and which one not to save.

About chess type names, it would be nice if for English worlds could exist
localization. Maybe fics server supports more languages, so it could get 
translated
word from server in the first place. But if it is too much bother don't do it, 
it is
not so important.

I'v changed the Plural-forms in your .po header according to
http://www.gnu.org/software/hello/manual/gettext/Plural-forms.html#Plural-forms 
and added some "games" translations. Seems to work ok for me. Please correct 
them as
needed. I know very little slovenian, just recognize a few worlds which similar
enough to russian :)

Hi,
found another untranslated tag. :)

In thread http://code.google.com/p/pychess/issues/detail?id=421 I requested for 
FICS
> Adjourned > Date/Time string and lobais has added this new string. Can you 
please
add this new string to subversion, that I can translate.
Thanks

Another round. Please tell me if any translatable string wants ngettext() (for
plural) instead of _().
