[Bug 951054] Re: Most of the Checkbox UI is not translatable
The following command will extract all the strings and put them into a ts file:
lupdate-qt4 frontend.pro -ts strings.ts
Another solution would be to compile the ui file into a cpp file and then extract the strings:
uic-qt4 qtfront.ui > ui_qtfront.cpp
the ui_qtfront.cpp is actually auto generated while compiling the qt
frontend.

Most of the Checkbox UI is not translatable

Bug description:
I started reporting bug 951025, but I think that one is probably just
part of a bigger bug.
It seems that most if not all of the Checkbox UI is not translatable,
or at least its translations are not exposed in Launchpad.
I can think of several causes:
- The checkbox.pot template is not up to date (this would explain translations not being in Launchpad)
- The Checkbox UI strings not being marked for translation (this would explain translations not being in Launchpad)
- The translation domain is not properly set in the code (this would explain translations not being loaded)
I think the first thing to determine is why are the UI strings not in
Launchpad.
I'm marking this bug as Critical from the translations side, as
Checkbox is an Ubuntu upstream app installed by default, and it needs
to keep up to the promise of an OS available in every user's language.
