As long as there is no centralized process to update the po files, I'm
trying to do it myself, but I don't know enough of the development tools
to achieve it. Maybe someone might help me :
I'd like to run "make messages" in kdebase/kicker source directory, but
there is no Makefile in it, only Makefile.am. How can I generate
Makefile from it, what command should I run ?
Thanks,
Denis

Maybe what we're looking for is here :
http://developer.kde.org/documentation/library/kdeqt/kde3arch/kde-i18n-howt…
especially chapter 3 about Makefile.am.
As far as I understand (I just checked quickly) It seems that "make
messages" should be run periodically on the source tree by its
administrator to update the pot files, followed by some command to
merge the new pot files with the existing corresponding po files for
each language (at present time, the po files seem to exist only in
kde-i18n directory as tarballs : maybe if they existed as untared in
svn, it would be more easy to do the merging and then for the
translators to update them.

(not forgetting that translators are just translators and may be very
ignorant besides !).

I'm not sure I understand what you say. Do you mean adding new
strings one
by one by hand in the po file ?
First, I might miss some new strings doing it that way.
Secondly, each trinity translater will have to do that manual
strings adding
in his language po files. Seeing the number of languages trinity is
translated into, that seems to be a terrible waste of time.
A centralized process adding new strings to all po files in any
languages
would be a lot more efficient. I can't imagine there's no automatic
way to
achieve this. But unfortunately I don't know how and don't have
much time to
investigate. I hope someone on the list has some knowledge about
that topic.
hm, maybe Trinity could do something like Fedora does?
