It is provided by upstream (with translations for group and category descriptions) for each repo that they create group files for. We have to edit and modify that file to put all the repos that are in the upstream product in one comps.xml file (so it is not split up and based on keys). Upstream already provides translation for most items, but if there are some that are not provided, then we can do that for the groups and categories. That file (comps.xml) is VERY IMPORTANT, so we have to be careful how we change it. (That file is the one responsible for yum group functions as well as installing If it is the actual "Package Descriptions" (and not group or category descriptions) that do not have translated text, that is in a different place (the specspo RPM). Since you said that the description issues were the package descriptions, it is probably an issue with the specspo RPM and not the comps.xml file. Downloading the specspo SRPM and doing installing it and doing: rpmbuild -bp specspo.spec then going to: BUILD/specspo-13/dist/desc/ and BUILD/specspo-13/dist/summary/ That is where the package summaries and descriptions are controlled. In the es.po file, I see several packages (including most in the kde group) that do not have translations in es.po. This is an upstream issue. I certainly have no problem with our teams translating any of these (if they want to) ... but I am not going to suggest that we do that. Maintaining that file would be a full time job in itself. The files themselves are fairly self explanatory, There is a file name and a "msgid" that is searched for and a "msgstr" that replaces it. I will certainly roll in any changes that people are willing to make, but I do not see this as a critical issue (as we have what is upstream already). <snip> Thanks, Johnny Hughes -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
