Hello,

I want to start a new Norwegian translation of aMule. Having already made one for eMule, it will get done swiftly. However, I have a couple of questions: I have downloaded and installed gTranslator, and according to the wiki I need to download and edit a file called source_strings.po. However, the link in the wiki is dead and I can`t find it anywhere in the forum.  Not even here: http://forum.amule.org/index.php?topic=1097.0

I am at a loss. Where is the file?

Hi Hallvor,

the source file is called amule.pot and can be found in the daily tarball @ amule.hirnriss.net.

I don't know about gTranslator (or translations in general), but you can create po-files using msginit --locale=nb --input=name.pot

I've created two example files for Norwegian Bokmaal and Norwegian Nynorsk, which you can use with any translation program like kBabel.

[Hallvor]

Thank you, wuischke. You are too kind.

Should have mentioned that I only need the nynorsk file.  Anyway, I have started translating and will post the file here once done.

[Hallvor]

33% remaining....  Hope I`ll make it in time for 2.2.0

[Hallvor]

I`ll post the finished file tomorrow night. Is there any way to test it without trying to compile the CVS-version of aMule? I can`t make it work.

[wuischke]

Don't you worry, as long as the translations are alright, I'll fix any syntax errors.

Testing: msgfmt -c --statistics nn.po should do the job on a machine with gettext installed.

[Hallvor]

Hello!

Have finished the translation now. The output gave me this info. I`m afraid this doesn`t say me anything as I`m pretty new to linux in general.

hallvor@hallvor-desktop:~$ msgfmt -c --statistics nn.po
nn.po:1966:59: invalid control sequence
nn.po:1960: `msgid' and `msgstr' entries do not both end with '\n'
nn.po:3169: number of format specifications in 'msgid' and 'msgstr' does not mat ch
nn.po:4027: format specifications in 'msgid' and 'msgstr' for argument 1 are not  the same
nn.po:4078: format specifications in 'msgid' and 'msgstr' for argument 1 are not  the same
nn.po:6228: `msgid' and `msgstr' entries do not both begin with '\n'
nn.po:6302:59: invalid control sequence
msgfmt: found 7 fatal errors

The finished file is attached...

Hi,

Thanks for the translation, I've included it in aMule.

I've fixed all the little problems (.e.g \m instead of \n, nothing serious), but there's one thing I cannot solve myself.

Does this make sense in Norwegian?

"Found corrupted part (%d) in %d parts file %s - FileResultHash |%s| FileHash "
"|%s|"
msgstr ""
"Fann korrupt del (%d) i %d delfila %s - Filresultathash |%s| Filhash "
"|%s|"

You forgot one '%d' (which is a decimal number) in your translation. I put it in front of "delfila", is this correct?

[Hallvor]

Hi,

it looks correct.

Thanks.

[wuischke]

Hi Hallvor,

I just saw at the status page, that there's one translation missing, it must have been added after I gave you the source string.
Could you please download the string file (click on the language name in the status page) and translate the missing string?

[Hallvor]

Hi,

there you go!

[Hallvor]

Noticed that a few lines had been added, and also fixed a couple of errors in the old file.

[wuischke]

Thank you, I've updated the translation.

[Hallvor]

New strings translated.

[wuischke]

Cra...I'm sorry, I completely overlooked your translation update.

Well, I've committed it now, I hope you excuse my mistake.
