Hey Stephane,

I feel like we have talked about this before, haven’t we?

Hi all,

as I explained to you previously, I regularly compare the contents of the English and German language files, of which here are my results at the end of this message :

Summary to date (since the 148 IPFire’s testing version of July 30) :

• 16 strings are missing in the English version (EN)
• 42 strings are missing in the German version (DE)

It would be great if someone could suggest an update to the translation files so that people contributing additional translations (e.g. French, Spanish, Portuguese, etc.) can base themselves on a full English language file.

When you say English is missing those, compared to what? Other languages?

This probably is that those strings have been removed and are no longer used. However, they have not been removed from other languages. People tend to only touch the language files of languages that they speak.

This file lists all missing strings for English which are non at the time of me writing this:

https://git.ipfire.org/?p=ipfire-2.x.git;a=blob;f=doc/language_missings;h=91...

There are tons of false-positives here. I have no idea why because the transition shows directly behind them. Must be a bug somewhere in the code. It would be nice if you could find that one.

https://git.ipfire.org/?p=ipfire-2.x.git;a=blob;f=doc/language_issues.en;h=6...

Then, languages have loads of unused strings:

https://git.ipfire.org/?p=ipfire-2.x.git;a=blob;f=doc/language_issues.de;h=d...

Those can be removed. You can provide a patch for that if you like.

Best, -Michael

Best, Stéphane
