[pacman-dev] Fwd: Pacman translation into Polish
Hi, I have begun work on translating pacman 3 into the Polish language, supposing there is no ongoing work yet. The files I attach here are alpha at best (done halfway through pl_PL.po, without testing in actual pacman itself since its source build seems to have odd issues with linking pacman.static against libacl, which is, in fact, installed and likely working on my system), the reason why I announce this work is mostly so that other people do not choose to follow my footsteps redoing what is already done by me. I shall post the rest shortly; stay tuned. The attached file goes into src/pacman/po in pacman-3.0.1.tgz source tarfile. Work on the lib/libalpm/po/pl_PL.po file is underway. I have also sent this e-mail earlier however I see it has not yet reached the mailing lists (perhaphs because I wasn't subscribed to it at the time) and, willing to rather avoid somebody starting a Polish translation without knowing about my current efforts, I'm willing to risk being responsible for a duplicate copy on the mailing lists.

No, I don't see duplicate message. Welcome to pacman-dev ML! It's always good to see new translations. :-) -- Roman Kyrylych (Роман Кирилич)

Cheers; I've completed the pacman translation apart from one string; It's still a bit rough around the edges, but it is certainly a step forward and some base for future improvements. I am currently testing it with pacman locally, so expect changes. I was also wondering about pacman mirrors since there isn't for example a reasonable polish mirror available currently - they're both very out of date/sync. How much traffic/bandwidth usage does such a mirror generate, on average? I could maybe be able to set up such a mirror locally in Poland, or help with organizing one; Does archlinux community provide with server equipment for dedicated mirrors in such case, or would that be necesary to set up on the mirror side, and if so, how big in MB/GB would such a mirror then be?

Cheers, I've seen the upgrade, it's not necesary aparently anyway to rebuild pacman as simply moving the msgfmt'ed .gmo files as pacman.mo and libalpm.mo into /usr/share/locale/pl/LC_MESSAGES/ is enough to make the current pacman appear in the right locale. Regards, //m. PS. Btw the upgrade broke gwenview, i reckon it's not really the place for such info, just tossing my two cents in :) It's the lib exiv2 which seems responsible. -- Mateusz Jędrasik <m.jedrasik@gmail.com> tel. +48(51)69-444-90, +44(772)664-2342 http://imachine.szklo.eu.org

I don't know about bandwidth, though I have small mirror here. If you want to setup mirror you should either rsync it from other official mirrors or (to get new versions faster) rsync from archlinux.org, but in that case you should contact devs (write a message to arch ML or Support Request on bugtracker) so they'll allow rsync access from your IP. As for size - complete mirror takes 12GB. [rk@server ~]$ show_mirror 12G /mnt/storage1/mirror 2,1G /mnt/storage1/mirror/community/os/i686 1,2G /mnt/storage1/mirror/community/os/x86_64 539M /mnt/storage1/mirror/current/os/i686 513M /mnt/storage1/mirror/current/os/x86_64 3,8G /mnt/storage1/mirror/extra/os/i686 3,5G /mnt/storage1/mirror/extra/os/x86_64 191M /mnt/storage1/mirror/testing/os/i686 840K /mnt/storage1/mirror/testing/os/x86_64 136M /mnt/storage1/mirror/unstable/os/i686 140M /mnt/storage1/mirror/unstable/os/x86_64
