[Bug 882664] Re: no Chinese/Simplified translation in oneiric

 

Mathew points out that oneiric zh_CN translations are 99.96% incomplete.
(Maverick was about 100% complete, so that's a significant regression.)

I think 13% of the translations from natty may still apply.

First, there are some 2644 translatable messages in oneiric:
$ cat ubuntu-help.pot | grep "^msgid" | wc -l
2644

To see how many natty translations still apply, I downloaded the
complete set of natty templates and po files from lp and merged the
multiple zh_CN.po files into a single po file. I applied the current
ubuntu-help.pot file to it (to extract the translations that are still
valid given that the source strings have changed) and then removed fuzzy
translations. They ended up in zh_CN.po that I have attached.

Counting the final translations (those that I think still apply):
$ msgattrib --translated zh_CN.final.po | grep "^msgid" | wc -l
336

So this manual approach, if valid, shows that every translation team may
be able to recover 13% or so of their previous translations.

Title:
  no Chinese/Simplified translation in oneiric

Bug description:
  Even with the latest language packs (11.10+20111025) from proposed
  installed, Ubuntu Desktop Guide does not appear to display in
  Chinese/Simplified (the only language I checked).

  Digging a little, it appears that the translated .page files are
  delivered by language-pack-gnome-LANG-base pkgs.

  It seems the Spanish language packs includes them, but zh-hans (for
  Chinese simplified) language packs do not:

  u@u-virtual-machine:/usr/share/help-langpack/zh_CN$ dpkg -L language-pack-gnome-es-base | grep "ubuntu-help/index\.page"
  /usr/share/help-langpack/es/ubuntu-help/index.page
  u@u-virtual-machine:/usr/share/help-langpack/zh_CN$ dpkg -L language-pack-gnome-zh-hans-base | grep "ubuntu-help/index\.page"
  u@u-virtual-machine:/usr/share/help-langpack/zh_CN$
