Let me handle this during a translation update round ? :-)
FWIW, here's the current changelog entries I have:
yiff (2.14.5-4.1) unstable; urgency=low
* Non-maintainer upload to fix pending l10n issues.
* Fix grammar error in debconf templates. Closes: #459544
Translations unfuzzied.
* Debconf translations:
* Japanese. Closes: #461947
* Swedish. Closes: #487280
So, what I propose is:
- I send a call for translations
- It opens a 10 days delay for translators to send/update translations
- I send you a summary
- You upload
Of course, I can *anyway* explain how I do this "Unfuzzy translations"
magic.
This is simple:
cd debian/po
sed -i "s/it's/its/g" *.po
cd ..
sed -i "s/it's/its/g" yiff-server.templates
debconf-updatepo
When new translations arrive, put them in debian/po, run "msgmerge -U
XX.po templates.pot", then
"msgattrib --clear-fuzzy XX.po >XX-new.po ; mv XX-new.po XX.po"
But, as said, I propose handling a translation update round for you..:-)
