Translation of Trac to Swedish/Svenska [sv]

[asmodai@…]

This ticket should be used to coordinate the translation to Swedish/Svenska?. See also TracTermsSv and source:trunk/trac/locale/sv_SE/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po

Just adding myself to Cc

Committed in r7749. Tack!

[jruigrok]

Need to poke Jonas about updating this. Unless some other Swede wants to step in and update the current files.

[wise@…]

I made a diff with some new translation

[wise@…]

Did some translation on empty strings

[wise@…]

new diff used babel 0.9.4 this time

sv_SE renamed to sv in r9141

About messages.2.po​:

$ msgfmt --check messages.2.po
messages.2.po:3110: missing `msgstr' section
messages.2.po:3111: missing `msgstr' section
msgfmt: found 2 fatal errors

Fixing it, then:

messages.2.po:383: `msgid' and `msgstr' entries do not both begin with '\n'
messages.2.po:425: `msgid' and `msgstr' entries do not both begin with '\n'
messages.2.po:2874: 'msgstr[0]' is not a valid Python format string, unlike 'msgid'. Reason: In the directive number 1, the character 't' is not a valid conversion specifier.
msgfmt: found 4 fatal errors

Fixing those as well.

Finally:

$ PYTHONPATH=. python setup.py compile_catalog -l sv -f
running compile_catalog
4618 error: trac/locale\sv\LC_MESSAGES\messages.po:1132: unknown named placeholder u'error'
error: trac/locale\sv\LC_MESSAGES\messages.po:2287: unknown named placeholder u'num'
error: trac/locale\sv\LC_MESSAGES\messages.po:2680: unknown named placeholder u'summary'
error: trac/locale\sv\LC_MESSAGES\messages.po:4171: unknown named placeholder u'page'

All from fuzzy translations so I "fixed" those but of course kept the fuzzy tag, as the translation itself is likely non-sensical.

Committed as r9142.

For Trac 0.12dev-r9466, Babel 0.9.5, no fuzzy translations

[mrelbe <mikael@…>]

messages.3.po​ is made for Trac 012.dev-r9466, using Babel 0.9.5, and is a serious attempt in getting the Swedish translation done (no fuzzy translations left). I added the whole file since the diff became totally unreadable :)

During this work, I discovered some "flaws" in the pre-defined messages in Trac, in that some combinations cannot be perfectly translated to Swedish. (Example: admin panel defines message string for "Manage Milestones" etc. but not "Manage Priorities". Therefore, the Swedish translation has some capital letter flaws though correct wording.)

Perhaps I may get back to help extending Trac :) (Still have to study some more Ptyhon, though.)

cboos: Is a diff-file preferable, or is it okay to attach a complete replacement file like I did above?

I really want this to be committed to Trac trunk, it seems that diff-files becomes committed quicker by you maintainers since they are easier to handle when updating source code -- very understandable, and I am thinking that I may have submitted the changes in an inappropriate format here.

Please let me know and I will redo the update if you find it necessary.

[cboos]

It's OK, I've no problem with full files when the diff would anyway be of comparable size.

The other interested contributors for your language can then look at the commit itself for checking changes and discussing further improvements, if needed.

One issue though:

#: trac/versioncontrol/api.py:350
#, python-format
msgid "Changeset %(rev)s in %(repo)s"
msgstr "Ändring %(rev)s saknas i förrådet"

i.e. missing %(repo)s in msgstr. Running msgfmt -c .../messages.po helps ;-)

(ignore the other errors a format specification for argument 'unit', as in 'msgstr[0]' which I should really fix before advertising the use of msgfmt -c further...)

Replying to cboos:

One issue though:

Oh... sorry, thanks for finding this. I'll get back tonight (after work hours) with another update (after using msgfmt).

Please await updating trunk for next update.

[mrelbe <mikael@…>]

100% complete for Trac 0.12dev-r9466

[mrelbe <mikael@…>]

cboos: messages.4.po​ should be mature for trunk.

[mrelbe <mikael@…>]

Swedish translations may now be contributed through ​transifex.net

[mrelbe <mikael@…>]

messages.4.po​ committed in [9471] by cboos. Many thanks!

With reference to ticket:9040#comment:8, I understand it is possible to be granted commit (write) permissions of language files.

In the same spirit, would it be possible to grant me write permissions for trunk/trac/locale/sv?

[cboos]

Hello Mikael. Yes, this would be OK for me, the translations you contributed so far looked fine.

The other Swedish speaking people interested in contributing translations are of course still encouraged to continue to do so, by sending suggestions and patches on this ticket. Changes committed by Mikael can be monitored via the RSS feed you'll find on log:trunk/trac/locale/sv.
