debconf-updatepo - update PO files about debconf templates
debconf-updatepo [
-v] [
-h] [
--podir=DIR ] [
--skip-pot] [
--skip-merge] [
--msgid-bugs-address=EMAIL]
This program reads
po/POTFILES.in to determine which master files need to
be processed, then extracts new gettext strings into
po/templates.pot
and updates all
po/*.po files. This script can be called either in the
top-level directory, or in the
debian or
debian/po
subdirectories. It is run by developer and/or translator to update PO files
when the English text is modified in
templates files.
-
-h, --help
- Display a usage summary and exit.
-
-v, --verbose
- Process in verbose mode.
-
--podir=DIR
- Set directory for PO files. By default PO files are
searched in debian/po, po and ../po directories in
that order.
- --skip-pot
- Do not generate a new po/templates.pot file.
- --skip-merge
- Do not merge existing PO files with
po/templates.pot.
-
--msgid-bugs-address=EMAIL
- Set the email address that will be specified in the POT's
Report-Msgid-Bugs-To field.
By default, this field is set to <package>@package.debian.org.
It is intended for the maintainers of Debian based distributions, and should
be used in the following cases:
- o
- The package is not present in Debian (and thus the
<package>@packages.debian.org address does not exist).
- o
- The maintainer made significant changes in the debconf
templates (or added templates to a Debian package without templates), and
does not want to bother the Debian maintainer with bug reports that won't
be relevant for the Debian maintainer.
The default address is preferred to avoid corrections in the Debian based
distribution without a notification to the Debian maintainer.
