Translation of Trac to Armenian [hy_AM]

[training@…]

This ticket should be used to coordinate the translation to Armenian.

See also wiki:TracTermsAM?.

[training@…]

The file messages.po contains the Armenian translation texts for Trac project.

[training@…]

The messages.po file needed to be added to locale/hy_AM/LC_MESSAGES directory.

Noticed ;-) Thanks for your contribution, I'll merge the catalog this evening.

Replying to training@…:

The messages.po file needed to be added to locale/hy_AM/LC_MESSAGES directory.

I actually added it to source:trunk/trac/locale/hy/LC_MESSAGES, as the two letters ISO 639-1 code should be the preferred name if there's no real need for an additional country code (see ticket:7353#comment:17). In case you think _AM is really needed, just tell us so and we'll make the change.

I also performed a catalog update, so you take the latest version for finishing the translations (r9081).

[training@…]

Country code isn't needed, so it can be just hy. Thanks.

A had a look at the hy/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po file at revision 9090 and it contains Hungarian translation. It is something strange:). My attached messages.po contains Armenian translation. Could you please correct this?

[cboos]

Oh btw, the "0%" status for Armenian seen on ​Transifex is due to the errors reported by msgfmt. Though those errors are not really ones for Babel, it could be nice to fix them:

$ msgfmt --check trac/locale/hy/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po
trac/locale/hy/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po:244: `msgid' and `msgstr' entries do not both end with '\n'
trac/locale/hy/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po:361: `msgid' and `msgstr' entries do not both end with '\n'
trac/locale/hy/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po:376: `msgid' and `msgstr' entries do not both begin with '\n'
trac/locale/hy/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po:2077: a format specification for argument 'unit', as in 'msgstr[0]', doesn't exist in 'msgid'
trac/locale/hy/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po:2084: a format specification for argument 'unit', as in 'msgstr[0]', doesn't exist in 'msgid'
trac/locale/hy/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po:2091: a format specification for argument 'unit', as in 'msgstr[0]', doesn't exist in 'msgid'
msgfmt: found 6 fatal errors

[training@…]

The corrected messages.po. Previous one contains incorrect translations.

[training@…]

Thanks for help. Could you please update the file?

[cboos]

Done in r9116. Note that the messages going like:

 #: trac/templates/macros.html:237
 #, python-format
 msgid "Total %(unit)s:"
 msgid_plural "Total %(units)s:"

are erroneous ones as msgfmt doesn't handle them correctly.
I will certainly have to rework r8904.

[training@…]

The current version without plurals translations passed the checking (msgfmt —check) on our side. After adding the following translation:

#: trac/templates/macros.html:214
#, python-format
msgid "%(num)s of %(total)s %(unit)s %(title)s"
msgid_plural "%(num)s of %(total)s %(units)s %(title)s"
msgstr[0] "%(num)s of %(total)s %(unit)s %(title)s"
msgstr[1] "%(num)s of %(total)s %(units)s %(title)s"

I got the following error:

messages.po:2078: a format specification for argument 'unit', as in 'msgstr[0]', doesn't exist in 'msgid'
msgfmt: found 1 fatal error.

Could you please help us with the problem?

[training@…]

Ooo I had a look at different locales translations. There are lot of such problems in the locales. E.g. fr_FR, nl_NL, zh_CH, and etc.
