Hello,

Of course your're right, but many \newglossaryentry were already translated when we noticed.
I can confirm that french accents are accepted as glossary entries.
Your solution with make clean satisfies me as to close the bug.

Maybe we could add this hint on this tuto page:  https://wiki.edubuntu.org/ubuntu-manual/authors
... which says: "... you should be able to run: make ubuntu-manual-LANG.pdf ..."?

Thank you for your quick anwer, as usual
Enrico

Title:
  Changes in glossary lead to a pdf generation fatal error

Status in Ubuntu Manual:
  New

Bug description:
  Hello,

  We encountered some surprising errors when changing glossary entries
  in the French translations. I explain here because I think it may be a
  bug.

  We changed a glossary entry from "Port Ethernet" to "port Ethernet"
  (so just from uppercase to lowercase), then changed the only
  translation referencing it from \gls{Port Ethernet} to \gls{port
  Ethernet}

  The .po was downloaded, add "make" produced this error:
           "! Package glossaries Error: Glossary entry `Port Ethernet' has not been defined"
  We could not find out why, there was nowhere else that this spelling was used

  After a few examples like this, I finally found out the cause: when
  generating the manual, the file ubuntu-manual-fr.gls still contains
  the old syntax. I suspected that this file was used as a cache, and
  was not deleted at the beginning of the make. So I deleted it
  manually.

  The result is now good, the .gls file was recreated by the make, and the pdf is ok.
  So no urgency, I just wanted to signal this because some other translators may encounter this problem.

  Best regards.
  Enrico
