History

#1 Updated by intrigeri 2014-08-09 18:58:47

  • Type of work changed from Translate to Code

The “Yes” string is not in the PO files, so likely we’re missing the Qt base translations package, or something.

#2 Updated by BitingBird 2015-01-07 17:58:21

  • Affected tool set to Installer

#4 Updated by BitingBird 2015-04-10 19:46:32

  • Subject changed from Installer translation: clone and upgrade to Have Qt base translation package in Tails

renaming now that the problem is clearer :)

Nope, that package is for Qt5 and Tails Installer is currently using Qt4.

Oh, IMO you’re overestimating my guess. I don’t think that renaming this ticket (whose title described a known issue very clearly), to give it a title that merely expresses what I guessed might be a solution, is an improvement. Going to revert this change.

  • Subject changed from Have Qt base translation package in Tails to Yes/No buttons are not localized in Tails Installer

  • Subject changed from Yes/No buttons are not localized in Tails Installer to Tails Installer not correctly localized

Testing in Tails 3.0:

The only button which is localized is “Install Tails”. Everything else is in english.

In French, much more is translated. What language did you test with?

I think the root cause was fixed in Bug #12588 on the code side, and by talking to Colin on the Transifex side. But this happened really close to the 3.0 release, so I wouldn’t be surprised if most languages had incomplete translations in Tails 3.0.

I tested in German.

Then I’ll wait until the next release to check this again.

  • Target version changed from Tails_3.0.1 to Tails_3.1

You wrote “Then I’ll wait until the next release to check this again” so I guess you will test this after 3.0.1 is out, which can’t be a blocker for the 3.0.1 release :)

In Tails 3.1 the installer GUI is still in english. Only one button is translated in the second screen of the installer. Any idea what this is due to? See screenshots.

I looked in po/de.po, and most strings are not translated, or are fuzzy, so I think this makes sense. It works well for other languages I tried, with better translation coverage (e.g. French).
