I stoped it after 10 mins or something like that. Yes. The whole preparation process can take more than 10 minutes certainly. For example, in a test I just made, it took near to 25 minutes to complete, this without counting the installation or actualization of packages that you might need. The time consuming task here is the image rendition process which creates near to 687 images. Nevertheless, to reduce the preparation time you need to start translating, you can skip the image rendition process all over by running the following command instead: ~/artwork/trunk/Scripts/Bash/centos-art.sh prepare --set-environment --packages --links --locales --manuals and later doing: centos-art locale trunk/Scripts/Bash --edit --dont-commit-changes > - I did set LANG to de_DE.UTF-8 to reflect the new language and started > "centos-art.sh locale".

Here is the script output and the time it consumes to finish the task in my workstation: [al at orion ~]$ time centos-art locale trunk/Scripts/Bash --dont-commit-changes --update ------------------------------------------------------------------ Actualizando trunk/Locales/Scripts/Bash/es_ES/Functions/Commons/messages.pot Actualizando trunk/Locales/Scripts/Bash/es_ES/Functions/Commons/messages.po Actualizando trunk/Locales/Scripts/Bash/es_ES/Functions/Help/messages.pot Actualizando trunk/Locales/Scripts/Bash/es_ES/Functions/Help/messages.po Actualizando trunk/Locales/Scripts/Bash/es_ES/Functions/Locale/messages.pot Actualizando trunk/Locales/Scripts/Bash/es_ES/Functions/Locale/messages.po Actualizando trunk/Locales/Scripts/Bash/es_ES/Functions/Prepare/messages.pot Actualizando trunk/Locales/Scripts/Bash/es_ES/Functions/Prepare/messages.po Actualizando trunk/Locales/Scripts/Bash/es_ES/Functions/Render/messages.pot Actualizando trunk/Locales/Scripts/Bash/es_ES/Functions/Render/messages.po Actualizando trunk/Locales/Scripts/Bash/es_ES/Functions/Tuneup/messages.pot Actualizando trunk/Locales/Scripts/Bash/es_ES/Functions/Tuneup/messages.po Actualizando trunk/Locales/Scripts/Bash/es_ES/centos-art.sh.po Actualizando trunk/Locales/Scripts/Bash/es_ES/LC_MESSAGES/centos-art.sh.mo real 0m8.296s user 0m2.197s sys 0m5.453s Note that I didn't pass the --edit option here.

To commit your changes up to the central repository you need to register a subversion account in https://projects.centos.org/trac/artwork and request commit permission on `trunk/Locales' directory structure to Ralph, he is the repository administrator. TIP: If you want to save yourself some time, be sure that the username you use in your workstation be the same you use to create your subversion account. This way subversion won't ask for your username each time you commit a change. Once you have the commit access to the central repository it should be possible for you to share your changes.
