[gaim-migrate @ 10358] "How do you update your po files ("make update-po" or ./update.pl)? update.pl has some advantages. But update.pl has also a small bug. In rare cases (double msgid's etc.) update.pl kills your po-file. This can happen, if msgmerge fails and if you have an old gettext version. The problem is here: po/update.pl:149: ... $d="mv $LANG.po $LANG.po.old && msgmerge $LANG.po.old $PACKAGE.pot -o +$LANG.po"; ... If msgmerge fails, the file $LANG.po will be overwritten. "make update-po" has not this problem, because it uses a temporary file: ... if $(MSGMERGE) $$lang.po $(PACKAGE).pot -o $$lang.new.po; then \ mv -f $$lang.new.po $$lang.po; \ else \ echo "msgmerge for $$cat failed!"; \ rm -f $$lang.new.po; \ fi; \ ... I patched po/update.pl. Now it uses a temporary file. Also, update2.pl lists files in po/POTFILES.in which have no i18n strings as a warning." -- Bjoern Voigt committer: Tailor Script <[e-mail]>
