Title:
  Set the "pt" language pack as the parent to the "pt_BR" language pack

Status in Mahara:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  See https://mahara.org/interaction/forum/topic.php?id=5352&offset=10

  The Mahara language pack system is set up to allow a language pack to
  specify a "parent" langpack, which will be used as its fallback for
  untranslated terms in preference to English. This is a feature we've
  never used, but basically inherited by porting Moodle's langpack
  system.

  Among our existing langpacks, the only one that could benefit from
  this is the "pt_BR" Portuguese (Brazil) language pack. There is a much
  more complete "pt" Portuguese (Portugal) language pack, and it would
  be great if the pt_BR pack used that as its fallback for untranslated
  terms.

  What needs to happen is this line of code added to the lanfconfig.php
  file for the pt_BR langpack:

   $string['parentlanguage'] = 'pt';

  Unfortunately, I've no idea how to make that happen under our current
  Launchpad-based translation system. As mentioned on the forum, I
  suspect I'd have to do it via a bzr push, but I'm clueless at actually
  using bzr.
