Use native language names

[Krakonos]

Not entirely opposed, but I'd like to keep some languages denoted as not properly translated (some of them are really not). I couldn't find a way to automate that part. Any ideas?

What about:

  ...
  auto code = filename.mid(baseName.length(), filename.length() - baseName.length() - 3);
  std::vector<std::string> less50Complete { "de_AT", "et", "fi", "pt", "sk", "vi", "zh_CN" };
  if (std::find(less50Complete.begin(), less50Complete.end(), code) != less50Complete.end()) {
    aBox->addItem(QString{QLatin1String("[less than 50% complete] ") + QLocale(code).nativeLanguageName()}, code);
  } else {
    aBox->addItem(QLocale(code).nativeLanguageName(), code);
  }
  ...

less50Complete list could be moved to CMake variable.

Sounds good. I think having two variables in cmake TRANSLATIONS_FULL and _PARTIAL would make sense, one language being in one of these only and file names generated from the codes. In this way, each language file is represented only once. I think removing the language lookup (directory traversal) could be removed from c++ and done only in CMake (either by a glob, or by specifying all the codes by hand).

I'd like to keep some languages denoted as not properly translated (some of them are really not).

I'm just wondering what's the reason to keep almost not translated languages in release distribution?

• de_AT - 0%
• et - 9%
• ~fi - 36%~
• pt - 34%
• sk - 38%
• vi - 36%
• zh_CN - 0%

It could be somehow useful for translator, but not for normal user. Production ready threshold could be at least 80%. What about excluding such incomplete translations from installation package? Translator can just put .qm file to translations path recognized by merkaartor to test interested translation.

[Krakonos]

No specific reason. You're right that they probably don't need to be distributed. Looking into the tx tool, there appears to be a way to only download some translations. So perhaps changing the workflow could be done in this way:

rm translations/merkaartor_*.ts tx pull --minimum-perc=X git status # and commit changes; some of the files may be dropped from repo at this point, due to the rm - if they dropped under the threshold

and modify the CMake to just glob translations_*.ts, omitting <50% code entirely, keeping the detection as you originally proposed it.

I've added minimum_perc = 50 to .tx/config.

Finally got around to review, I only have one question: is it necessary to have all the languages listed in .tx/config? I'm not honestly sure why they would be there, as my tx client never inserted them there nor did I.

I've removed them and it seems to work.

Merged, thanks for the contribution!
