[Bug 1061169] Re: Installation prompt needs internationalization support

 

@Maxim, unless something has changed or I'm missing something, the Unity
Firefox extension contains only the strings that appear in the Firefox
preferences - also its source package needs to be set up for
translations (bug 1061423). This bug is for the prompt to install
webapps, whose strings are in the webapps-greasemonkey package (on the
components/unity_webapps.js file). Could you please confirm that and if
it's correct change the bug status?

@Gabor, once the package is properly set for translations, and if it's
not supported by language packs, the developer should take care of
fetching the translations and integrate them into the source package on
the translations deadline milestone [1] as per the Ubuntu policy, yes.

Title:
  Installation prompt needs internationalization support

Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  Invalid
Status in WebApps: Websites integration Firefox plug-in:
  Invalid
Status in “webapps-greasemonkey” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Right now whenever the user navigates to a site with webapp support,
  the browser prompts them with a message describing that there is an
  integration script available and whether they want to install it or
  not.

  This message is in English only, which breaks consistency on desktops
  (and browsers) localized in other languages, as well as making it
  difficult for those not fluent in English to understand what they are
  actually being asked.

  The messages need to be marked for translation, extracted and exposed
  in Launchpad Translations, and then translations either loaded at
  runtime or embedded in the script at build time (or a mixture of the
  two, whatever the best approach is).

  This affects the components/unity_webapps.js script
