debconf−updatepo − update PO files about debconf templates
debconf-updatepo [−v] [−h] [−−podir= DIR ] [−−skip−pot] [−−skip−merge] [−−msgid−bugs−address= EMAIL ]
This program reads po/POTFILES.in to determine which master files need to be processed, then extracts new gettext strings into po/templates.pot and updates all po/*.po files. This script can be called either in the top-level directory, or in the debian or debian/po subdirectories. It is run by developer and/or translator to update PO files when the English text is modified in templates files.
−h, −−help
Display a usage summary and exit.
−v, −−verbose
Process in verbose mode.
−−podir= DIR
Set directory for PO files. By default PO files are searched in debian/po, po and ../po directories in that order.
−−skip−pot
Do not generate a new po/templates.pot file.
−−skip−merge
Do not merge existing PO files with po/templates.pot.
−−msgid−bugs−address= EMAIL
Set the email address that will be specified in the POT ’s Report-Msgid-Bugs-To field.
By default, this field is set to <package>@package.debian.org.
It is intended for the maintainers of Debian based distributions, and should be used in the following cases:
o |
The package is not present in Debian (and thus the <package>@packages.debian.org address does not exist). | ||
o |
The maintainer made significant changes in the debconf templates (or added templates to a Debian package without templates), and does not want to bother the Debian maintainer with bug reports that won’t be relevant for the Debian maintainer. |
The default address is preferred to avoid corrections in the Debian based distribution without a notification to the Debian maintainer.
debconf−gettextize(1), po2debconf(1), podebconf−report−po(1), po−debconf(7).
