%DESC% en - somedesc XX_YY - somethingdesc in other language
Hey there. Patch ready and committed to our pacman tree to darcs. You can view below at that url. I don't know it is applies to arch pure cvs version or not. http://darcs.frugalware.org/darcsweb/darcsweb.cgi?r=pacman;a=plain_commitdif...; Some comments. Choosed the second way so the desc style now looks like this: %DESC% Somedescription <--- This is default english no langcode need hu_HU localized desc. <--- Need a langcode (locale) and one space then translated description tr_TR another desc. <---- same Seems clean. The patch is fully backward compatible with old style. No break in packages which does not contains many translations. If no translation found for current locale then this patch fallbacks to english by default. (first line) Needed to modify in package.c package.h and be_files.c No need any modification for pacman or anything else. The frontend and everything gain back only one info->desc stuff. So the old way stay and we wont break anything with backward compatibility. Feel to free apply or disband. (as many of my patches pending now still ...)
