what's new

#131206 make it fatdog compatible, LANGPACK=langpack | langpack_fatdog

Fatdog needs puppy's langpack.

Code: Select all

#131212 support t12s method

If you don't know what it is you won't need it

Code: Select all

#131219 enable quirky6.0: no check on pupmode

May be of interest if you cannot have frugal install, only full install

Thus it might be not for everyone.

...and here is a screenshot

New Year - new momanager

Version 20130101
containing just some fixes for bugs detected by Finnish translator zephyr2 who has no frugal install.

That is why I have extended momanager to work with full install, tested in Quirky6.0

EDIT: xgettext, etc do yet NOT work in Quirky6.1

EDIT: works in Quirky if you install gettext-0.18.3.1.tar.bz2 from
http://ftp.nluug.nl/ftp/pub/os/Linux/di ... 2/quirky6/

FFMM is dead
Long live momanager.

Yes, I will put your latest momanager pet into quirky 6.1.1.

Latest momanagers do not work on latest Slacko (5.6.5.1, 5.6.5.2). I use version 20130620 which works.

Thanks again.

Hi L18L -and happy NY!-,

Are you talking about these gettext-tools?

We're still in festive mood here...a real hiatus, unlike Barry's

Thanks!

I was talking about gettext-tools in slacko's package manager.
Don't know whether it is the same or not.

Bon appétit

Great work, L18L.

Thanks to Barry, you, Bert and vicmz I was able to release the first pt_PT translation for Puppy. (see why).

I can't express my gratitude...

I was using momanager in Quirky tahr , it worked well however I realized
that the .desktop file is not appropriate for language packs.
It requires translations of the name so that non-English speakers
can understand the function of program.
Barry Kauler needs to be notified of this problem.

Code: Select all

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=MoManager create non-English Puppy
Name[fr]=MoManager - pour traduire
Name[de]=MoManager - Übersetzung kontrollieren
Icon=chooselocale.xpm
Comment=MoManager create non-English translations
Exec=momanager
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=X-Utility-development
GenericName=MoManager

Hello guys,
I just installed Slacko with a full install, then downloaded the lang_pack_fr and loaded it, but nothing happened.
I tried launching Momanager from the console and it complains that PUPMODE = 3 (full install) thus aborting.

Maybe the correct way was to install it when I ran it the first time, before doing the full install? Is there a way to do it now? (I just spent the all day yesterday to set it up!! ^^)

What did you expect to happen after restarting x server?

Does your /usr/sbin/momanager contain this line:

Code: Select all

#131219 enable quirky6.0: no check on pupmode

?

L18L · #157 Post by **L18L** » Sat 22 Feb 2014, 14:06

don570,
my translation which is used in langpack_de is

MoManager bringt Puppy deutsch bei

and this means that
MoManager teaches Puppy German

I cannot see any problem with this.

don570 · #158 Post by **don570** » Sat 22 Feb 2014, 20:21

The version that Barry Kauler uses (in Woof) has a desktop that is pure
English. So he should be warned.

The people who make language packs have made changes to their
desktop files obviously.

It's OK to have a translated .desktop file to let users know what's about, maybe it's just not in Barry Kauler's plans. When he said Momanager is English-only, he was serious. Why would a translator need translations? A Puppy translator must have an excellent knowledge of English and how Puppy Linux works.

Slacko 5.6.5.6 has an old version of Momanager. I can't create or update translation files, I can't run newer versions of Momanager either. It says a library is missing, when I install that library it says I need libraries.

Yes, and the people who use language packs are seeing the translations of their installed language packs only.
Who does not have French langpack_fr installed is not seeing French translation of "MoManager create non-English Puppy ".
Who does not have German langpack_de installed is not seeing German translation of "MoManager create non-English Puppy ".

I do not thank that Barry is using MoManager
He has coded it.
He has coded it in a genious way.
And we users (of MoMager) extend it, that's it. That's the way how free software works.

Trying to reproduce your observation
I am running slack05.6.5.6 pfix=ram now
devx_slacko_5.6.5.6.sfs loaded on-the-fly

I did choose 1st entry of "Scripts that do not have a mo file"
and rc.shutdown.po was opened in geany.
msgfmt works:

Code: Select all

# msgfmt
msgfmt: no input file given
Try `msgfmt --help' for more information.
#

Thus builtin MoManager (official from #130807) works for me.

Which one of the unofficial MoManagers are you trying to use?
Did you load devx_slacko_5.6.5.6?

I am planning to post another version of MoManager soon (found a bug in my implementation "Actual" vs "Check needed")

Thanks for posting.
