Translations
|
||
|
============
|
||
|
|
||
|
There is a three-step process for translating man pages. Most
|
||
|
of the work happens in the man-po directory.
|
||
|
|
||
|
> make -C man-po translate-templates
|
||
|
Creates the translation templates (the .pot files) for translators
|
||
|
to use as a base. These, along with the tar file, should be sent
|
||
|
to the tp-coorindator before release.
|
||
|
|
||
|
> make get-trans
|
||
|
rsyncs the latest translated (.po) files for both the programs and
|
||
|
man pages.
|
||
|
|
||
|
> make -C man-po translate-mans
|
||
|
This is also called in the dist-hook and is where the translation
|
||
|
magic happens. Take the original man page, the relevant .po file
|
||
|
and produce a translated man page in that language.
|
||
|
All of the man pages generated are found in
|
||
|
man-po/(LANG)/man(SECTION)/
