Is it possible to have language aggregation in [1]? For example, pt_PT has only 8 files. It would be great if were possible to rename them to pt.po, but Abiword, horde2, imp3, turba, mnemo and squirrelmail all use only xx_XX format, so it would be difficult to ask upstream to rename them. Everybuddy and gtkam have xx_XX as well as xx languages, so I'm about to send bugreports to maintainers, as well as updated .po files, asking them to rename those files and to ask upstream to do the same. Having agregation between xy and xy_XY languages would trully show those language status, not just for Portuguese, but I guess to other languages as well. Debconf templates [2] and debconf gettext [3] both have it right [4]. Was this already discussed somewhere ? (I didn't find anything in a quick look) Is it possible ? It would help alot my soon-to-be project for Portuguese translations :) [1] http://www.debian.org/international/l10n/po/ [2] http://www.debian.org/international/l10n/templates/ [3] http://www.debian.org/international/l10n/po-debconf/ [2] except for one debconf template for hu_HU, but debconf templating is to be replaced for gettext and it will be fixed then, I'm sure -- Bruno Rodrigues <bruno.rodrigues@litux.org>
