Added: src/pacman/po/ru_RU.po (1.1) Modified: doc/pacman.8 (1.8 -> 1.9) src/pacman/po/LINGUAS (1.4 -> 1.5)
* Added Russian language translation. Thanks! Вам Зачем <4rayven@gmail.com>
Note that Вам Зачем is not a real Russian name (it's not a name at all), just FYI.
Haha, thanks then. I just figured it was because it is in the place a name normally goes. I cannot read Russian. :) What should I be putting?
Dunno, ask the author. I guess Вам Зачем is his nick, however it roughly translates like "why do you need". :-)
* Updated manpage to document --cachedir and --dbpath options.
I'm confused here. Is it ok to update manpages during string freeze? I guess the difference between updating manpages and strings is that when string will be changed and not updated - it will be displayed in English, so updating it during freeze is not allowed, right?
"Strings" are the messages that make it into the po files. Since as far as I know no one has been translating the manpages (correct me if I am wrong), I wasn't as concerned about updating them to be full documentation, because it won't break any translations which is the real reason behind a string freeze.
Oh, I just thought there are at least one manpage translation. :) -- Roman Kyrylych (Роман Кирилич)
