Log messages should be translated as well. (Those from ALPM already are.)
I can not find a single alpm_logaction line in libalpm with a translated string...
Right, not sure what I did, but I got that all wrong indeed, apologies. Should I resend the other two patches without the translation in then?
Not yet... I suggest waiting for comments
Quick question also: while not a native English speaker, I don't like/use translations myself; Is it how things usually work, translations are for user interface only, and don't apply to logs? Or is this especially for "system" softwares?
We are debating this in IRC... The --debug output should never be translated, but whether the log file should be is debatable. One thing to note is that translation will break tools that deal with the log files like paclog-pkglist from pacman-contrib. I'd like to hear others opinions on this. Allan
