[Bug 473830] Re: The cups-common binary package should not install PO files

 

cups-client actually does use the po files at runtime. (Of course that's
ugly, but can't be helped without further deviation from upstream).

** Changed in: cups (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Won't Fix

Title:
  The cups-common binary package should not install PO files

Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  Triaged
Status in “cups” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  The cups-common binary package installs source translation files at

  /usr/share/cups/locale/<langcode>/cups_<langcode>.po

  Unless there is a specific reason to do that, these files should not
  be installed anywhere.

  PO files are the source files translators use to do their work. At
  build time they get converted to message catalogs (.mo files), which
  is what should get installed instead.

  Note: this is similar to bug 415452
