Hi,

Apparently this is caused by bug 987199 in Launchpad itself. The
translations are shared between series, i.e. newer translations on trunk
are automatically be copied in 6.1, and the other way around. However
there seems to be a missing link, something that would tell Launchpad
that the new translations should be exported in other series. Only the
series where the terms were originally  changed is automatically marked
for export.

It seems that the Japanese translation team has been recently working in
the trunk series when translating, so as a result of this bug, the .po
files are only updated in the source code for the trunk series, not the
6.1 series.

There is unfortunately not much we can do to fix this properly
ourselves, we have to wait for Launchpad to fix it.

In the mean time we have two simple workarounds (albeit tedious):

1) To force an export of the updated 6.1 po files, the translation team
can simply "touch" any of the 6.1 translations, like translate one of
the missing terms, or perform a dummy change on an existing
translations. They must be sure to work in the 6.1 series here[1]

2) From now on and until the bug is fixed, it would be better to update
translations always via the 6.1 series rather than the trunk series, to
make sure that the 6.1 .po files are always up to date. The trunk files
will be updated in the future anyway because we will update the
translation template for 7.0, and that will certainly force a new
export.

Sorry for the inconvenience. I will update the translation documentation
to mention this. I'll also close the bug as 'Won't Fix' to indicate that
we cannot fix it ourselves. I'd rather not make it a duplicate of bug
987199 because it is an indirect result of that bug, but not exactly a
duplicate.

Title:
  Japanese translations not updated in nightly builds

Status in OpenERP Server:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Hi,

  After installing the latest 6.1 nightly build (wget
  http://nightly.openerp.com/6.1/nightly/src/openerp-6.1-latest.tar.gz ,
  which gives the build from the 19/06 at the time of the bug report), I
  realized that the translations made in Launchpad were not pulled into
  it.

  For example : the module purchase https://translations.launchpad.net/openobject-addons/6.1/+pots/purchase/ja/+translate is almost completely translated and yet the .po file in the purchase module is mostly untranslate.
  If I download the .po from launchpad, everything is correctly translated, as you can see in the attachment.

  
  Could you make it so the translations are really pulled in the next nightly builds ?
  Thanks.
