Bugs or missing bits in translation system

Hi, I’m once again trying to report these; the last time I tried this I wasn’t yet a member of openSUSE’s translation mailing list so my message bounced (or was held indefinitely). This is about parts of openSUSE that seem to be untranslatable or translations that do not seem to propagate in the actual UI. 1) In KDE Plasma, the “Default openSUSE panel” string is not found in Weblate. I’ve found the string in /usr/share/plasma/layout-templates/ org.opensuse.desktop.defaultPanel/metadata.json where it can be translated by adding a “Name[xx]” key (where xx = the language code). Please add this anywhere so the SUSE-specific parts would appear translated in the UI. 2) In YaST, some strings do not appear to be translated in the UI even while they *are* translated in Weblate. It looks like the translatable source strings in Weblate do not exactly match those actually used in YaST. For example, desktop-file-translations/update-desktop-files-yast (both master and SLE-15-GA) have the source text: “Choose the repositories for installation of software packages (CD, network, etc.), add the community repositories” …but this is NOT the form that you can see in YaST UI. Instead, the string is: “Choose the repositories for installation of software packages (CD,network,etc.),add the community repositories” (i.e., there are no spaces after the commas). This can be easily verified by `msgunfmt`ing desktop_translations.mo from /usr/ share/locale/<LANG>/LC_MESSAGES, finding the source string, removing all spaces following a comma from it, and `msgfmt`ing the file back. The description is now magically shown in YaST as localized. I don’t thing gobbling up the spaces is intended! -- .... Tommi Nieminen .... https://legisign.org/ ....

Leap 15.4 Beta is comming soon call for translations
by Lubos Kocman 23 Feb '22

23 Feb '22

Hello openSUSE Translation team! I'd like to make a call for translation of openSUSE Leap 15.4 as we're about week away from Beta being public. More about the roadmap can be found here https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Roadmap Ss you might know Leap 15.4 is based on binary rpms from SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP4, therefore a lot of translations for these packages need to come from the SUSE Linux Enterprise. However there is still a lot of community packages, website, wiki that needs your help. https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Localization_status shows a nice summary of areas that could use help. -- Best regards Lubos Kocman openSUSE Leap Release Manager

opensuse-welcome translation update
by Jan Papež (honyczek) 04 Feb '22

04 Feb '22

Hi, please could you check why the opensuse-welcome package translation is not updated so long? There are some bug reports at bugzilla [0] about that. Translations are updated at github source repository with version 1.8.0, but the package in distribution repositories remains at the old version 1.7.1 released in 2019. Two years ago there was pull request [1] from repository X11:Utilities [2], which could solve this, but it was declined.
