I18N progress 2.0

[Dmitry A. Kuminov]

This is a continuation of ticket:234 which is intended for two purposes:

1. Submit new translation source files by attaching them to this ticket.
2. Report about performing synchronization of existing translation source files in the SVN repository.

Step 1 is done by contributors willing to add support for a new language to the VirtualBox product. An accepted translation file appears in the SVN repository and becomes available in the binary builds. Even after that, contributors remain responsible for updating translation files to keep them in sync with updates to the VirtualBox UI.

Step 2 is performed by the translations maintainer at Oracle before a new release (or after a major UI change) to inform contributors that translation files need to be updated.

Please read the document describing the translation process in detail ​here.

A separate ticket for NLS mistakes/suggestion has also been created (#4503). Please subscribe to the ticket to monitor new reports (add a comment to do so).

[Dmitry A. Kuminov]

This ticket introduces a switch of VirtualBox GUI from the Qt Toolkit verison 3 to version 4. In particular, this means the following:

1. The primary translation target is the Qt4 GUI. The current location of NLS files for it is ​http://virtualbox.org/svn/vbox/trunk/src/VBox/Frontends/VirtualBox4/nls/. Note that one day the VirtualBox4 directory will be renamed to just VirtualBox after the current VirtualBox directory is renamed to VirtualBox3. The Qt3 GUI will go away from binary distributions in VirtualBox and stop receive any official support from Sun so the only reason why Qt3 NLS may change in the future and therefore need an update from the translator is either a bugfix of the 1.6 product branch or a contribution to the Qt3 GUI from the community.

2. The tool that needs to be used to work with .ts files from the VirtualBox4 directory is Qt Linguist 4 (you can download the Open Source version of Qt 4 for your platform here: ​http://trolltech.com/downloads/opensource).

[Dmitry A. Kuminov]

2.0 NLS Ready to Translate

The new 2.0 release is expected next week. Please note again that VirtualBox 2.0 and following versions will ship the VirtualBox GUI that uses Qt version 4 and therefore you need to update the Qt4 NLS files, not the Qt4 ones. See comment:1 and also make sure you have read the ​Translating document once more since there are some important updates.

All VirtualBox NLS files (VirtualBox_*.ts) were copied from the Qt3 directory and then syncronized with sources. It means that all existing (and not changed) NLS string should remain intact in the .ts files for Qt4.

However, the situation with Qt4 NLS files (qt_*.ts) is little bit different. We cannot synchronize them with Qt4 sources at the present time and therefore we took the existing files from the official Qt release version 4.3.3 and put them over the ones in the VirtualBox4/nls subdirectory in SVN. The following files were put over:

• qt_ar.ts
• qt_de.ts
• qt_es.ts
• qt_fr.ts
• qt_iw.ts
• qt_ja_jp.ts (renamed to qt_ja.ts)
• qt_pl.ts
• qt_pt.ts
• qt_ru.ts
• qt_sk.ts
• qt_sv.ts
• qt_zh_CN.ts

Maintainers of the respective translations should check these files and make corrections if necessary.

The contents of the rest of qt_*.ts files were replaced with the contents of the new qt_xx_YY.ts file that represents an untranslated NLS template for Qt4. Maintainers of these translations will have to translate them from scratch (probably using translated strings from Qt3 version of the .ts file opened in a separate window of Qt Linguist).

[Christian Pötzsch]

2.0 NLS update

There are some last minute updates to the translation files. Please checkout the latest revision using svn & continue the translation work on this new files.

[Dmitry A. Kuminov]

Updates to the Romanian translation are merged to SVN. alexef, thank you, and as far as I see, you (correctly) translated the Qt4 (aka VirtualBox 2.0) version, so I don't see the reason for 'sorry'.

[Dmitry A. Kuminov]

2.0 NLS last minute update

There are some more minor corrections in the .ts files, please feel free to update.

[peremen]

Currently Korean translation is being updated, and current status is about 90%. Do you know the exact release of VirtualBox 2.0?

[peremen]

• exact release date

[Dmitry A. Kuminov]

Replying to peremen:

• exact release date

The exact release date is today, the build is closed already. However, there will be 2.0.2 very soon, so your contribution is still highly appreciated.

[peremen]

I think it is too late, but here is Korean translation file.

[Alex Eftimie]

Replying to dmik:

Updates to the Romanian translation are merged to SVN. alexef, thank you, and as far as I see, you (correctly) translated the Qt4 (aka VirtualBox 2.0) version, so I don't see the reason for 'sorry'.

I was sorry because I only translated VirtualBox.ts file, not also qt.ts. Maybe in the future, we can use qt.ts from Qt, not our own?

[Dmitry A. Kuminov]

Replying to alexef:

I was sorry because I only translated VirtualBox.ts file, not also qt.ts. Maybe in the future, we can use qt.ts from Qt, not our own?

There is no qt_ro.ts in the official Qt 4.x distribution. If you have one (e.g. contributed to to Trolltech by someone else), you can use it for VirtualBox too provided that the license of that translation is compatible with our (MIT) license.

[Daniel Nylander]

Swedish translation updated. Please add my mail address to the list, <removed>

[Erico Mendonca]

Already translated the missing strings for VirtualBox for pt-BR. I should be sending an update later tomorrow, after I finish the QT4 strings and proofread them.

BTW, I found the following typos in the en-US strings:

in VBoxGLSettingsUpdate: "When checked, the application will periodically connect to the VirtualBox website and check whether a new VirtualBox verison is available."

in VBoxVMSettingsUSB: "When checked, enables the virtual USB EHCI controller of this machine. The USB ECHI controller provides USB 2.0 support."

now that's a sexy controller... :)

[Christian Pötzsch]

docca: Thanks for the typo hint. This is corrected internally & will appear in the public svn soon.

[Erico Mendonca]

Here's the full translation for both VirtualBox and QT4. I proofread it, and everything appears to be in order.

[Erico Mendonca]

poetzsch, could you place me (or all the translators here, for that matter) in the CC field? I'd like to receive email notifications whenever the ticket is updated, if possible.

[Frank Mehnert]

docca, I would not recommend that because the cc: field of a ticket is public visible. There is an internal cc: list. The easiest way to get on this list is to post a comment here. If someone is familiar with trac, ideas on how to do this better are welcome.

[Erico Mendonca]

I know it's off-topic, but perhaps ​this Trac plugin could be of use? The group notify feature seems to be just what is needed.

[Jeppe Toustrup]

Just an update, as you haven't heard anything from me since I said I would do the Danish translation. It has taken more time than expected, and the Qt3->Qt4 transition also made it take a bit longer, but I'm currently around 70% done with the VirtualBox.ts file. I will post it when I'm done with it.

[Joaquin Duo]

Hi again!!

Is is possible to have SVN privileges so that we don't have to live the hassle of zipping the files?

Sincerely, Joaquín

[spiros vlachos]

Greek (Hellenic) translation 5% done

[Daniel Nylander]

Updated Swedish translation (100%)

[hron84]

VirtualBox3 (Qt3) translation update (1035/1188)

[hron84]

I attached a latest Qt3 translation update. I'll no longer update this translation.

[hron84]

Fully translated Virtual Disk Creator Wizard + typofixes (960/1068)

[hron84]

Replying to dmik:

Maintainers of these translations will have to translate them from scratch (probably using translated strings from Qt3 version of the .ts file opened in a separate window of Qt Linguist).

Qt4 Linguist have a little trick: you can open the Qt3 ts file by Phrases -&gt; Open auxillary source, and select a Qt3 .ts file. It doesn't modifies it, just open, and shows a matching translation (if found) between the Source and the Translation part of the editor stuff. I used it well with VirtualBox3-VirtualBox4 migration.

[Dmitry A. Kuminov]

Replying to jd:

Is is possible to have SVN privileges so that we don't have to live the hassle of zipping the files?

No, it isn't possible, sorry.

Replying to hron84:

Qt4 Linguist have a little trick...

Thank you for the hint.

[Dmitry A. Kuminov]

Updates to the Swedish, Spanish, Hungarian translations are merged to SVN.

yeager, please use the Qt4 Linguist application! By using some raw XML editor to update the .ts file you a) break the standard indentation every time (which appears as too many meaningless diffs the maintainer needs to review when checking your update) and b) risk to break the translation by accidentally breaking the markup (HTML entities, extra spaces, line feeds and so on)!

ozzii, your Serbian updates don't merge clearly with the current version of src/VBox/Frontends/VirtualBox4/nls/VirtualBox_sr.ts from the SVN: please perform a merge on your side, resolve any conflicts and reattach here.

jose1711, the same applies to your Slovak translation. Looks like you took VirtualBox_sk.ts from the VirtualBox directory instead of VirtualBox4. Please take the right file and re-attach.

[Dmitry A. Kuminov]

epimitheas, thank you for your will to contribute the Greek translation, but you didn't provide all necessary details about you (full name, e-mail) and didn't license your translation so we cannot accept it right now. Please read ​http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Translating#Submittingthetranslation and follow the instructions there (and read the rest of the document if you didn't do that yet).

[Daniel Nylander]

dmik: I used Kbabel 1.11.4 earlier but have saved the files using Qt Linguist 4.4.2 now. Hope the files are better looking now. Regards, Daniel Nylander

[Dmitry A. Kuminov]

Replying to yeager:

dmik: I used Kbabel 1.11.4 earlier but have saved the files using Qt Linguist 4.4.2 now. Hope the files are better looking now.

Ok, great. But please use the current version of VirtualBox_sv.ts from SVN each time you update it and attach here (or use the SVN client to update this file for you as described in the second comment of this ticket) -- there were a few fixes missing in your last attached .ts (don't worry about attaching it again -- just take the current SVN version and continue on it).

[Daniel Nylander]

dmik: I can't find any missing strings in the SVN copy of VirtualBox_sv.ts. There are two empty strings for country/language, which I guess I shouldn't translate

[Dmitry A. Kuminov]

Replying to yeager:

dmik: I can't find any missing strings in the SVN copy of VirtualBox_sv.ts. There are two empty strings for country/language, which I guess I shouldn't translate

I said "there were missing fixes" meaning that I already fixed that when merging it to SVN so it contains the correct version now which you should take for further translation. Two empty country strings are indeed do not need to be translated in your case.

[jose1711]

update of Slovak translation

[Bc. Jan Kalab]

Updated Czech translation to be compatibile with VirtualBox 2.0.x (fixed by Radek Vybiral)

[Robert Buj]

New catalan translation based with softcatalà style guide

[Dmitry A. Kuminov]

epimitheas, thank you for the start! However, I don't see anything translated in VirtualBox_el.ts, it even lacks your name. I've added your name and the language name myself but keep in mind that the translation won't be added to the distribution until the amount of translated items reaches the 50% limit (note that you must take both .ts files from SVN and continue your work on them, not on your local copies!). Also, you didn't provide us your email which is a requirement too.

jose1711. I will repeat. The files you attached are kind of wrong: they are from the unsupported Qt3 version of the VirtualBox frontend (i.e. from the src/VBox/Frontends/VirtualBox/nls directory). You need to take them from the src/VBox/Frontends/'''VirtualBox4'''/nls directory (simply download using these links: ​http://www.virtualbox.org/svn/vbox/trunk/src/VBox/Frontends/VirtualBox4/nls/VirtualBox_sk.ts and ​http://www.virtualbox.org/svn/vbox/trunk/src/VBox/Frontends/VirtualBox4/nls/qt_sk.ts if you are unable to work with SVN)! I've merged them to the Qt3 directory though since they belong there. But keep in mind that these updates will not appear in the VirtualBox4 directory, you will have to put them to Qt4 .ts files manually.

Pau, I've merged your update however could you please comment on what are the other two archives attached by rbuj after you?

rbuj, thank you but first please tell what did you attach and why and who you are :) The Catalan translation is maintained by Pau Iranzo now so you should coordinate your efforts with him. I left your files untouched so far.

Updates to the Greek, Slovak (Qt3), Catalan (but not ca_2 and ca_ES), Romanian, Czech and Chinese are merged to SVN.

[Dmitry A. Kuminov]

2.1 NLS Ready to Translate

The new 2.0 release is expected by the end of next week. Please note again that VirtualBox 2.1 and following versions will ship the VirtualBox GUI that uses Qt version 4 and therefore you need to update the Qt4 NLS files, not the Qt4 ones. See comment:1 and also make sure you have read the Translating document once more since there are some important updates.

[Erico Mendonca]

Here's the updated translation for version 2.1.

[jean-jacques]

translation for VirtualBox4/nls/*

[Pau]

Hi, I've just realised that "rbuj" attached two files of Catalan translation. I haven't had any notice about rbuj, but I'll try to contact him (is there a way to find out which is his e-mail?

Thanks

[Dmitry A. Kuminov]

Replying to Pau:

is there a way to find out which is his e-mail?

Not that I know of. He didn't present himself to us yet.

[Pau]

Update for VirtualBox_ca.ts (Qt4), catalan

[jose1711]

Slovak language

[jose1711]

adding (slightly) updated Slovak translation. hope it's okay now. joe

[payuta]

Ukrainian language - started translation

[marcelocoelho]

Updated pt translation, although not final.

[jose1711]

updated Slovak translation

[Dmitry A. Kuminov]

Updates to the Catalan, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese (Brazil), Slovak, Swedish and Portuguese translations are merged to SVN. Thank you very much everyone!

jean-jacques, please note that your latest update has not been accepted because it doesn't merge cleanly with either of the VirtualBox versions (Qt3 and Qt4). Looks like a Qt3 translation file with some partial updates from the Qt4 sources. Note however that the Qt4 version of the French translation was updated by Sun people (Michael Thayer) and is ready for the 2.1 release. You may contact Michael if you have questions.

[jose1711]

Updated Slovak translation

[Kullawat Chaowanawatee]

I'm working on Thai translation.

[Radek]

Updated Czech translation for 2.1.x

[jose1711]

Updated Slovak translation

[hron84]

Updated to svn trunk, some translations added (934/1097)

[guoguy]

Mr. Victor Wang, I found some flaws in your translation.

1. Some words and phrases are not translated. Do you think they don't need to be translated or the translation is just incomplete. If it's the latter case, the progress should not be 100%. If the former, well, it's really a problem.
2. Some translations are not appropriate. They are either lengthy or confusing.

Wang, I want to make further disscusion with you. So you can contact me(my email address is <removed>) or give me your email address if you are glad to.

[Serdar Soytetir]

VirtualBox Turkish translations updated against svn head.

[Vincenzo Reale]

Hi all, my name's Vincenzo and I'm a member of the KDE Italian translation team. I'm interested in maintaining the Italian translation. Ciro, the previous translator, agreed on the maintainership takeover.

[ozzii]

This folder is not accessible anymore. Normal or not? ​http://www.virtualbox.org/svn/vbox/trunk/src/VBox/Frontends/VirtualBox4/nls

So I can't check for the langage update.

[Dmitry A. Kuminov]

Thanks for the good question, ozzii. Here is the important update.

We discontinued the support of the Qt3 frontend a while back and now we removed the source code of this frontend located at src/VBox/Frontends/VirtualBox from the repository. After that, the src/VBox/Frontends/VirtualBox4 directory was renamed to just src/VBox/Frontends/VirtualBox.

In other words, now the directory src/VBox/Frontends/VirtualBox contains the sources of the active Qt4 frontend. The NLS files you need to maintain are located in the ​http://www.virtualbox.org/svn/vbox/trunk/src/VBox/Frontends/VirtualBox/nls directory.

[Thomas Törnblom]

It appears there is a problem with the Swedish translation. I get the following messages when I open Settings (Inställningar) if I have LC_MESSAGES=sv: --- Qt WARNING: QString::arg: Argument missing: du har tilldelat mindre än <b>1%</b> för grafikminnet vilket är den minsta mängd som krävs för att växla den virtuella maskinen till helskärmsläge eller sömlöst läge., 7 MB ---

Hello, I would like to ask WHO is responsible for submitting translation to SVN? I've updated Czech translation for 2.1.x 31. 12. 2008!!! But this update NEVER appears in 2.1.x versions. Why? Whats wrong with this update? Right now there some untranslated strings specially in Wizard sections. So if a BFU starts to use VirtualBox and wants to help with Wizards, there are some English strings, WTF!? Thanks

[Pau]

Some fixes for the Catalan translation

[ozzii]

Little question: Why when I download the Serbian ts files from the virtualbox servers a lot of sentences are "untranslated"? But the translation is complete!

[Daniel Nylander]

Please update the link in the first comment (history) ​http://www.virtualbox.org/svn/vbox/trunk/src/VBox/Frontends/VirtualBox4/nls/ does not exist anymore

[Christian Pötzsch]

Merged the Slovak, Czech, Hungarian, Romanian, Turkish, Finnish, Catalan, Italian, Swedish translations to SVN.

kedar1: Sorry for the delay.

yeager: I can't edit comments. I will delete this one, cause all is described in the wiki.

hile: I have updated your changes, but please ask Jarno Kiuttu or Timo Jyrinki if this is ok, cause this two maintaining this language set.

fei: Please ask some of the former maintainer if it is ok to merge your changes. You have to release your changes also under the MIT license. See ​http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Translating for a description.

Thanks to all for your work. I will inform you about the upcoming release soon.

[Christian Pötzsch]

ozzii: You file doesn't cleanly merged. So I couldn't import it to svn.

[Timo Jyrinki]

poetzsch: hile's changes to the Finnish translation are ok both now and in the future.

[ozzii]

Corrected the error. Normaly now it's OK for merging.

[Wiktor Wandachowicz]

Virtual Box haven't seen an update to Polish translation for a long time. Actually, last SVN log entry that mentions Polish translation is dated 2007-11-27.

If nobody objects, I will update this translation soon.

[Christian Pötzsch]

Re SirYes: Adrian Łubik or Dawid Wrobel is this ok for you? SirYes please see ​http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Translating for how it works. You have to release your work under MIT.

[Christian Pötzsch]

Merged Italian, Serbian & Chinese translations.

[Christian Pötzsch]

Merged the Italian translation. Thank you smart2128.

[Christian Pötzsch]

2.2.0 NLS Ready to Translate

We are in preparation of the next upcoming major release (approximately released in a week). I have updated the nls directory with the latest NLS changes. You are welcome to update your translation.

The files to translate are located in ​SVN as usual. For the detailed update process see the ​Wiki.

Thanks in advance.

[peremen]

Updated Korean translation according to 2.2.0.

[Wiktor Wandachowicz]

Current status for Polish translation is that only about 100 strings out of 2033 are missing. In 24 hours it will be finished and (hopefully) proofread by me and another person.

The old translation was badly outdated and poorly translated. Basically I'm doing it almost from scratch, using 40-50% of the original material. Be patient, it's going to be worth it.

[Radek]

Updated Czech translation for 2.2.x

[Wiktor Wandachowicz]

Full archive of Polish translation files (including original and modified versions, as well as .diff files) can be found at: ​http://ics.p.lodz.pl/~wiktorw/vbox/2.2/

[Christian Pötzsch]

I have merged the updated Korean, Italian, Czech, Polish & Japanese translations to the svn.

Thanks for your work.

[Ilkka Tuohela]

Updated translation for Finnish, against SVN trunk as of 2009-04-0x

[Erico Mendonca]

Here's the updated translation for Brazilian Portuguese.

[Wiktor Wandachowicz]

Polish translation of comments in *.desktop files, for VirtualBox 2.2 (against r18709)

[Christian Pötzsch]

Merged Finish & Brazilian Portuguese translations. Added the Polish translation of the desktop files.

Thanks for your work.

khem: You have to release your work under the ​MIT license. Please have a look at the ​Wiki for a how to.

[Wiktor Wandachowicz]

Correction for wrong "(IO APIC)" hint on Advanced VM Settings page. I must have used incorrect suggestion in Qt Creator, the one regarding ACPI instead.

[cromo]

I am the former polish translator for virtualbox. I am sorry for not updating the translation for virtualbox since the time being, but I was (and still am) busy with my master's thesis research. I came here to say thank you to my successor, as I noticed that starting with version 2.2 polish translation has different maintainer. I am however disappointed (to say the least) by what SirYes says about the quality of my work and the fact he rewrote 40/50% of it. I've spent countless hours on this translation, doing my best to make particularly those very long sentences clear and understandable by anyone (not just tech-savy people) while trying to figure out correct nomenclature and to stick to it over different parts of program. By the diff SirYes supplied I can clearly see that the very most of the changes are _only_ cosmetic, so PLEASE, SirYes, don't make fuss and publicly insult my work by saying it was "poorly translated" (as I am sure it was not ) and that you rewrote ~half of it (as you clearly did not). You may have altered that many lines of the translation but did not rewrote that much - and it makes a huge difference.

It was simple enough to just send me an private email asking if you can handle the translation on yourself, without making up the reasons for overtaking the translation on a public forum.

Anyways, I can see the changes you've done are for better so I wish good luck with translation.

[Wiktor Wandachowicz]

I apologize, your analysis is right. I *felt* like rewriting the translation, because of the need to touch so many strings in a coherent way. And even though the changes may seem minor, they were numerous. I've spent a good portion of my evenings for last three weeks to get the thing updated on time. Some new phrases were so complicated that I needed to contact other Polish translators from Aviary.pl team to agree on the wording (for example: "appliance").

I apologize once more for not contacting you privately, but I was unable to dig out your address like I typically do (.po files encourage pasting e-mails in the header, for example), and I asked here first for permission on 2009-03-13. I hoped that after commenting here all translators would get an e-mail to their mailboxes. Since there was silence I assumed both former translators became MIA and started to work on my own. If you feel insulted then I publicly say I am terribly sorry for the whole situation - and I truly am.

I'm not trying to overtake anything, I know how [we] translators feel pride of the work. Please contact me: <e-mail removed> for further communication, so this channel would stay clear.

Hi

I don't know why, but the Catalan translation is actually the previous version of the last one that I attached here one month ago. Did something go wrong?. Thanks!. (On the other hand, I had no time to translate the 2.2 version :(...)

[cromo]

SirYes - OK, it's fine, I just didn't want the developers of Virtualbox to have feeling that I my translation was poor, that's all. Your changes really seem better to me and make more sense and more professional (however I really did my best on translation). Never mind, and good luck! :)

[Pau]

Hi again

I would like to ask the language administrator if it is possible to update the language files when a minor VirtualBox update is published (for example on 2.2.1). Some languages like Spanish, Portuguese, Basque or Catalan have not been updated on the last release and it is so "ugly" to see English sentences on the menus or explanations when using VirtualBox on our language.

Of course it was our fault to not have translated the files on time, but I think it's not very difficult to add them on minor updates.

Thanks! (I've just attached the Catalan translation)

[fei]

Taiwan translation Updated for 2.2.0

[Christian Pötzsch]

Merged Catalan, Swedish, Italian & Polish translations. Thank you very much.

re cromo/SirYes: please see comment:59, where I asked for acknowledgment. Maybe I should have wait I little bit longer. Sorry for the confusion.

re Pau: It seems I simply forgot to include your changes. Sorry. Your updated translations will be included in the next minor release. About the updates of minor releases in general: We have a separate branch for the minor releases beside the trunk. So its not that easy to keep the translations you do for the trunk in sync with that branch. But I will try to backport as much of your changes as possible.

re fei: Sorry, I can't include your changes because the former translators doesn't acknowledge this step & you haven't agreed to publish your translation under the terms of the ​MIT. Please see the ​Wiki for the steps necessary to get the translation included. bluebat would it be ok for you when fei updates the zh_TW files also?

[Khoem Sokhem]

Replying to poetzsch: Thank for your help. and this translations release in MIT.

Hi, I would like to take over the maintenance of the dutch language file since it seems that it is maintained no longer, and is very incomplete? Also the current translations in the qt_nl.ts file are often far from correct.

Hi

It seems that yesterday, the first beta of VirtualBox 3.0 was out. What about translations? Are the ts files on nls ready to translate?.

Thanks!

[Christian Pötzsch]

No, we will update the NLS files short before the final release.

[Frank Mehnert]

The reason is that there are still some GUI / NLS changes pending.

[hron84]

Hi!

I translating again VirtualBox, but I see a changes on ​http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Translating page.

So, the questions:

• I need to send email to info WORM virtualbox.org even if I was an active translator?
• A guy joined to me and helps in translation. Need he send a comment with MIT license, or enough if I'm a leader and I submit the translated stuffs?

I'll upload hungarian files tomorrow...

[Jeroen Stikkers]

@poetzsch:

Since it's been over a month now and I haven't seen a reply from Alexander I went ahead and translated most of the file already, especially with the upcomming 3.0 release in mind. I still need to complete a few things and then test the file on my local installation. when that's done, I think, mid-nextweek, I'll attach the file to my next message if that's ok?

[hron84]

Updated translation file. Needs SVN resync

[hron84]

VirtualBox_hu.ts: Translated: 1224 of 1257

[Christian Pötzsch]

Updated Bulgarian, Chinese, Spanish, Italian, Hungarian & added Ukranian translations. Thanks all for your work.

Re hron84: You haven't to relicense your work. To be on the save side it would be nice if your collage would also add the statement about releasing his work under ​MIT her in the defect. Also adding his name to the ts file would be nice.

Re Jeroen: ok, I will change the ownership to you when you uploaded the files.

[Christian Pötzsch]

3.0.0 NLS Ready to Translate

We are in preparation of the next upcoming major release (approximately released in a week). I have updated the nls directory with the latest NLS changes. You are welcome to update your translation.

The files to translate are located in ​SVN as usual. For the detailed update process see the ​Wiki.

Please note that I updated the qt_*.ts files to the Qt version 4.4.3 also. Maybe you should have a look to the corresponding language file as well.

Thanks in advance.

[Vincenzo Reale]

Updated Italian translation for 3.0.0 (VirtualBox_it.ts 99% qt_it.ts 60%)

[Erico Mendonca]

Hmm... just a question: the string Phonon::GStreamer::MediaObject->"A required codec is missing..." from the qt file seems to be missing a "%n" marker according to QT Linguist. Is that correct? Where should we put it?

[hron84]

Replying to docca:

Hmm... just a question: the string Phonon::GStreamer::MediaObject->"A required codec is missing..." from the qt file seems to be missing a "%n" marker according to QT Linguist. Is that correct? Where should we put it?

The complete string sounds: "A required codec is missing. You need to install the following codec(s) to play this content: %0" So, you must put %0 to the correct place.

[Christian Pötzsch]

Accidentally I changed some strings in the ts files which shouldn't be changed. I corrected the corresponding strings in all files. If you already checked out the files please to a update again. Nothing else have to be done from your side. Sorry & Thanks.

smart2128: I already merged your last changes. Thx.

[Daniel Nylander]

@poetzsch: I have uploaded the updated Swedish translation, which lacks the latest changes. Please commit and update with the latest changes and I will update the translation asap.

[Daniel]

I updated ukranian tranlation for 3.0, but someone may explain me what does «bucket» mean?!

[Erico Mendonca]

Alright, here are the updated files for pt_BR.

[Erico Mendonca]

@Wiseacre: "bucket" refers to a virtual storage unit on a cloud-based bulk data storage service, like ​Amazon S3. Translating it directly may sound a little weird, specially if in your country people already use the term in English for lack of a better translation. Perhaps you should leave it as "bucket" as well?

[Daniel]

Perhaps. Anyway, thank You for explaining.

[evin]

The Hungarian (hu) translation attached here by George Hron and Tom Evin ( aka hron84 and evin ) is published under the terms of the MIT license.

[Domokun]

I'm going to maintain the translation to my language (Dutch) since the current Dutch translation only has 2 words translated.

[Christian Pötzsch]

re Domokun: please see comment:86, comment:88, comment:95 & comment:97. I guess Jeroen has started to working on a new translation for Dutch already. Maybe you could both work on it and share the work. Please make sure that you proper sync your work. The instruction for translating VBox are ​here. Thx for your interest on contributing to VirtualBox.

re kedar1: merged your changes. Thx for your work.

[Domokun]

@poetzsch, thanks for that, I forgot to read the previous comments (silly me). I will contact Jeroen about it.

[Sander van Leeuwen]

A separate ticket for NLS mistakes/suggestion has also been created (#4503). Please subscribe to the ticket to monitor new reports (add a comment to do so).

This will encourage people to report problems in a single place so you don't have to monitor all new tickets.

Thank you.

Replying to poetzsch:

re khem: Added Khmer to VBox as official language. Thx again for your work.

@ poetzsch: I have tested Virtualbox 3.0.2 and I see Khmer included already. but there is a problem with translation that need to be corrected.

Should I attach as new for updated translation again?

Thanks,

[David González]

Hi!, I would like to update the es (Spanish) translation, it has many strings untranslated, some typos and misspellings for the current translation archives in svn (r21916). I don't find a email to contact Joaquín Duo to ask him if he is currently working in this language. You can contact me at <removed>. I can start the translation update in one week or so if I don't get answer? Thanks.

Re geertseb: I can't add the Dutch translation, cause you didn't release your work under the terms of the ​MIT license. Also see this ​instructions on translating VirtualBox. Alexander L. de Goeij would this Ok with you?

[Joaquin Duo]

The latest attachment is not syncrhonized with current svn, so wait until i send the new one. Cheers! Joaquín

[Joaquin Duo]

I checked it and it was a typo fix already fixed on the version sent. So the attachment is OK to go. Cheers! Joaquín

[Lars Hansen]

Replying to Tenzer:

Just an update, as you haven't heard anything from me since I said I would do the Danish translation. It has taken more time than expected, and the Qt3->Qt4 transition also made it take a bit longer, but I'm currently around 70% done with the VirtualBox.ts file. I will post it when I'm done with it.

In agreement with Tenzer (<removed>) I'm going to assume responsibility for the Danish translation of VirtualBox.

[hron84]

Updated translation to fixed source strings (no translation change happened)

[gumstic]

Hi,

I'd like to take over the Greek (el) language translation, since it has not been updated and is incomplete. I have made other tranlations of applications for quite some time now. Who should I contact, or anyone can contact me at [gumstic@…]

[Christian Pötzsch]

Merged Dutch, Spanish, Slovak & Romanian translations. Thanks for your great work.

Re geertseb: I added you as the new maintainer for Dutch but I'm a bit confused who is working currently on the Dutch translation. According to comments ​86, ​111, ​112 there where more people requesting for this job. Would be nice if you could coordinate your work & inform me about the status. Regardless of this thanks for your work.

Re gumstic: As Spiros Vlachos doesn't work on Greek in the last year & the translation file is almost empty I assume its Ok when you start working on it. Please see this ​instructions & don't forget to release your work under ​MIT when you first upload something.

[Christian Pötzsch]

Merged Dutch. Thanks for your work.

[Christian Pötzsch]

Please be aware that we have added some strings to VirtualBox which have Plural Forms. This means the translator can give a translation for "%n years" as 1) "1 year" & 2) "2 years". In Linguist such strings contain "%n" & the Linguist ask you for adding more then one variant (Sigular, Plural & maybe more depending on your language). I have updated our ​docs & you can find more information on this topic ​here.

[Pau]

Hello,

I'm the current Catalan translator and I would like to start a new translation which actually is a variant of Catalan language known as "valencian" (name: Catalan (Valencian); code: ca_VA).

Apps like Firefox, Thunderbird, Kompozer, GNOME and many others have the possibility to choose this variant. The IANA has already accepted this variant (ca-valencia / ca@valencia).

I've already finished the translation. Could it be added to VirtualBox?.

Thanks!

[Christian Pötzsch]

Sure, just add the translation file to the ticket. Please make an extra comment that you release it under the terms of the MIT.

Regarding the new released version of Vbox 3.1.6

In 2009 I translated VirtualBox to Dutch and submitted that translation

• attachment VirtualBox_nl.zip added.

The Dutch (nl) translation attached here by Ebel Geertsema is published under the terms of the MIT license. 2009-12-15 13:44:47 changed by poetzsch

But this morning I installed Vbox on a new system and the Dutch translation was not included. So I was a bit supprissed? What is necessary to have the Dutch translation by default in the distribution package?

Regards, Ebel

[Christian Pötzsch]

Hi Ebel,

I have added the Dutch translation file to the tree as I wrote in comment 128. Unfortunately I forget to update our ApprovedLanguage file, which is used by the various distro packagers to decide which language is allowed in the final product. I'm very sorry about that. I have fixed it in the tree already and now Dutch will be included in the next release.

Again, Sorry, Christian

[Joaquin Duo]

Hi everyone! I noticed that qt_es.ts has changed and has untranslated strings. So i guess we should get from qt site or translate those files, isn't it?

Cheers! Joaquín

[Christian Pötzsch]

Hi Joaquín,

please use the qt_es.ts which is included in the VirtualBox nls directory. If there are strings not translated, then translate them. I know this is not the one which is up to date or the newest from Nokia, but this isn't necessary. First we ship different versions of Qt ourself on the different platforms and second the different distributions on Linux we support have also different versions of Qt installed. Ideally Nokia should provide the translations to Qt for at least all major languages. But beside English and German there isn't that much. So we have to do this ourself.

Christian

[Pau]

This is weird... te Catalan qt file have no new strings to translate (I have compared it with the Spanish one and the strings to translate are the same).

[Christian Pötzsch]

Sure I didn't update the qt.ts files. Not sure why jd is asking this right now, but the qt_es.ts file isn't fully translated, but the qt_ca.ts is.

[Toshimitsu Tanaka]

Updated Polish translation of VirtualBox 3.2.2 (100%), also updated automatically Polish Qt translation (100%), using Qt 4.7 as translation base.

[Wiktor Wandachowicz]

Automatic translation of qt_pl.ts has been conducted according to the tip provided at: ​http://forum.teamspeak.com/showthread.php?t=50214#3

Basically it means I did the following steps:

• downloaded qt_pl.ts from ​http://qt.gitorious.org/qt/qt/trees/4.7/translations
• converted it to a phrase book using "lconvert -of qph -i qt_pl.ts -o qt_pl-4.7.qph"
• opened the just created Phrase Book in Qt Linguist (as the only phrase book)
• opened the qt_pl.ts that came with VirtualBox
• performed the batch translation (from the Edit menu), after checking all three options
• did some manual fixes here and there (translated missing strings, etc)

[Christian Pötzsch]

Merged pl and nl. Thanks for your work.

Please also remove Jeppe Fihl Toustrup as he's no longer active in the project (he still gets credit in the VirtualBox_da.ts)

[Christian Pötzsch]

Merged da, zh_TW and uk. Thanks for your work.

Re sarauw: I slightly updated the table and realized that I can't find your statement about releasing your work under the terms of the ​MIT. Can you please do this (again!).

Hi,

I've merged Catalan but not Catalan (Valencian). Before doing so, I would like to ask for a change of the language code because it is not "correct" at this moment.

The code assigned at this moment for Catalan (Valencian) is ca_VA, but "VA" doesn't refer to "Valencia" but "Vatican". The main problem is that we have two variants of a language in the same country: Spain, Catalan from Catalanoia region and Catalan from Valencia region.

The OpenOffice.org team has decided to use the alternative locale code: ca_XV until the modifiers sets by the BCP47 (​http://tools.ietf.org/rfc/bcp/bcp47.txt).

KDE, GNOME, Windows and other systems and software already support it. We have already open a bug report on QT asking for the implementation of the bcp47: ​http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-7100

The change of the locale code for the Catalan (Valencian) translation is not really necessary, it is simply imprecise. It would be great if the VirtualBox developers could "push" the Qt team to implement the language modifiers from the BCP47.

[Mindaugas Baranauskas]

My name is Mindaugas Baranauskas. I would like to translate VirtualBox to Lithuanian language and publish my work under license.

[Mindaugas Baranauskas]

...and public my work under MIT licence. (excuse-me, I used wrog wiki tag in message before)

[Mindaugas Baranauskas]

96% translated of VirtualBox_lt.ts, 68% qt_lt.ts

[Christian Pötzsch]

Merged ca and added lt. Thanks for your work.

Re comment 191: What would be the right (or official) full language code for Catalan Valencian? I'm not sure how ca_XV will help here in the meantime. Please note that this language codes are used to set the language automatically if the user doesn't overwrite this.

[Pau]

Hi, poetzsch,

The official code is ca@valencia, but that's a locale modifier that is not implemented yet. We have already asked for it to qt developers: ​http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-7100

But until they implement it, there is no way to use it. Windows, GNOME and KDE (that use po files) are compatible with this modifier. But software that uses the .ts translation files cannot.

At OpenOffice.org we have decided to use ca-xv and that's the locale that is being used at this moment: ​http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/OOoRelease321

All this until they can implement locale modifiers like ca@valencia. This case is different because they use a different system than .ts files.

If changing to ca_XV is a problem, then we keep using the ca_VA code until modifiers are implemented.

Thanks!

Replying to poetzsch:

Merged ca and added lt. Thanks for your work.

Hello there,

There is one thing I could not understand. When uploading the language as an attachment, I have to be careful not to overwrite someone else's work. How do I do that when I have to upload with that specific file name (VirtualBox_my_MY.zip)

Thanks!

By the way, isn't GR the standard (ISO 3166) code for Greece, instead of EL that is used here?

On upload form, you will have a checkbox "Replace existing attachment of the same name", if it is unchecked, the bugtracker automatically makes name of your file to unique in this ticket (with adding a counting number).

It will be very-very good thing, but don't forget specify your translation as licenced under MIT, as described here: ​http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Translating#Submittingthetranslation

On the previously linked page, you will find some other tips how to do translating.

Have a good luck.

Hi, my name is Walter Cheuk. I found an error in Traditional Chinese translation and would like to report it here.

For the string "Details (%1 of %2)", the Traditional Chinese should have the two figures swapped as required by Chinese grammer.

Regards,

[Sakis]

The thing is, (if I am not mistaken) in the qt manual says that even if you swap them the result will be the same. Even if you put them %2 and then %1, %1 will be shown first and 2% second.

[Michael Thayer]

wwycheuk: if you don't mind testing, I will attach a compiled translation file with the change you recommended, and if you say it works for you I will commit the change.

[wwycheuk]

re Pau: We leave it by ca_VA until the official version is there in Qt.

re SPQRobin: Ebel Geertsema is the current maintainer of the Dutch translation. Please contact him first, so that he could check your changes.

[Mindaugas Baranauskas]

I found 1 confusing explanation of translation comments in VirtualBox.ts:

source texts "hard disk", "CD/DVD", "CD/DVD image", "floppy", "floppy image" has comment "failed to mount ...", but these messages are used in dialog "Are you sure you want to release the". So this situation should be mentioned in the comment.

Besides, I tried to produce error "failed to mount", but then don't appeares expected parts of messages above. This comment confused me, because the translation of "hard disk" differs in differs situations in Lithuanian (not like English): "standžiojo disko" (failed to mount), "standųjį diską" (release).

Yw, Today, I did a fresh 'svn co ​http://virtualbox.org/svn/vbox/trunk/src/VBox/Frontends/VirtualBox/nls VirtualBox_nl', I still get the old xxx_nl.ts files (i.e. not reviewed) that way, though.

Is that correct? (svn at revision 40753) or should i receive the new translation files with that command?

[Richard E van der Luit]

review 3 Dutch translations, typo corrections term corrections

[Michael Thayer]

To all: can you use the .ts files from VirtualBox 4.1.12 at ​http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/4.1.12/VirtualBox-4.1.12.tar.bz2 as a basis for your work rather than the ones from svn for now? Note that you can use the Qt Linguist lconvert tool to extract translated strings from the svn .ts files into the 4.1.12 one to save you re-translating them. I am still getting up to speed on this... Thanks.

Please, could you suggest the correct lconvert syntax? Thanks in advance.

[Michael Thayer]

$ lconvert -o <output .ts file> <first input .ts file> <second input .ts file>

looks like the thing. If the same string is found in the first and second file then the one in the second file will be used according to the help text. Probably best to experiment a bit to see what works best (I would be interested to know too, as this is new ground for me as well) and then when you have something which has as much information as possible to use that. I assume that the output file will contain the untranslatable strings.

Updated Italian translation for 4.1.12 (VirtualBox_it.ts 100% qt_it.ts 76%)

[Richard E van der Luit]

New Dutch translation for 4.1.12 Menu showing correctly except for 'Settings'-button in VMM (see ticket #4503 in a moment).

This is what i did to convert and remove obsoletes at the same time:

commando used for VirtualBox_nl.ts conversion 4.1.10 -> 4.1.12

• VirtualBox-4110_nl.ts is my current reviewed and last uploaded file for 4.1.10
• VirtualBox-4112_nl.ts is the nl.ts file of the tar mentioned at comment 283
• VBout_nl-1210-no-obs.ts is the new outfile to work on as of now
• --target-language nl for correct plural rules in new _nl.ts file
• --no-obsolete deletes all obsolete strings while converting (how fresh)

commando:

---

lconvert --no-obsolete --target-language nl -o VBout_nl-1210-no-obs.ts VirtualBox-4112_nl.ts VirtualBox-4110_nl.ts

---

• rename VBout_nl-1210-no-obs.ts -> VirtualBox_nl.ts
• load this VirtualBox_nl.ts in Qt Linguist
• finish the (few) empty strings (all in suggestion-window Qt L, very fast retouch)
• save and
• release as...
• copy VirtualBox_nl.qm in working dir VB/nls
• check translation

commando used for qt_nl.ts conversion 4.1.10 -> 4.1.12 (if necessary at all)

---

lconvert --no-obsolete --target-language nl -o qtout_nl-1210-no-obs.ts qt-4112_nl.ts qt-4110_nl.ts

---

steps after commando are the same as for VirtualBox_nl.ts, with corresponding qt.ts, except no corrections needed, so really no idea if this is a waste of time.

hope this is not OT her,

(100%) means all strings are translated, 1 string in qt.ts an 1 string in VirtualBox.ts won't validate due %n marker error, as known

regards Richard

[Richard E van der Luit]

uploaded old files *sigh*

here the right ones, real Updated Dutch translation for 4.1.12

[Michael Thayer]

Richard, thanks for the updated translation and the overview of the conversion process (no, I don't think it is off-topic). I was thinking of using VirtualBox_nl.ts from 4.1.12 rather than VirtualBox_xx_YY.ts - did you have a particular reason for preferring that one? I think that removing the obsolete strings will limit Linguist's ability to suggest suitable strings, as often new strings are only slightly changed old (i.e. obsolete) ones, and these are still useful for suggestions. Though I dare say that there isn't much need to keep them once you are finished with a translation (and in any case that can be your decision).

Is it possible to fix the problematic string in VirtualBox_nl.ts manually in a text editor for now?

[Michael Thayer]

Vincenzo, thanks for the updated Italian translation. Both that and Richard's Dutch one have been merged.

[Michael Thayer]

Updated Ukranian, thanks Daniel.

[Michael Thayer]

I have uploaded the latest set of reference .ts files to https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/nls/. I hope that these ones are string complete for 4.1.12. Daniel, there seem to be a couple of untranslated strings left in the Ukranian translation file (probably due to my previous mix-ups).

Validation check on place marker is toggle in QtL, i saw. Validates after disabeling that check.

In my case many obsoletes became a burden instead of a help (incorrect suggestions), so i removed them.

Translators using above commando's should check against German (=Oracle) and/or template file whether as obsolete marked strings are *really* obsolete. I encountered several strings which were not.

You are right about preferring the VirtualBox_nl.ts 4.1.12 file btw, i'll edit the commando.

[Richard E van der Luit]

Updated Dutch translation, totally clean, to 4.1.12

Ty Michael, your testcase at comment 292 was a great help. Covered all my findings as wel, no flaws.

finally done,

(menu is translated 100%, all earlier issues gone)

[Erico Mendonca]

Something appears to have happened to the pt_BR translation on 4.1.12. Almost everything is back into English!

SVN says it's all unfinished when I compare to the latest version I sent:

# svn diff
Index: VirtualBox_pt_BR.ts

.
.

Did something happen while merging?

[Michael Thayer]

The problem seems to be that the strings in SVN differ quite a bit to the ones in 4.1. I'm really not sure how our previous translation manager handled that, but since I am obviously not as sharp as him I intend to switch to keeping the most recent translations from the released version (4.1 just now) on a public web page, updating them in-between releases. I have now updated the instructions on the Translating page (see the difference page for the precise changes). docca, can you check whether your translations are still present in https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/nls/VirtualBox_pt_BR.ts and just need to be confirmed?

To all - are the changes I am suggesting to the translation work flow understandable (and do they make sense to you)?

[Daniel]

Is it correct file now? Sorry I was confused by this changes. Thank you.

[Erico Mendonca]

michael, the file in the testcase repository is wrong. The one in the zipfile I sent earlier this week is correct.

[Vincenzo Reale]

Updated Italian translation for 4.1.12 (VirtualBox_it.ts 100% qt_it.ts 76%)

[Vincenzo Reale]

The Italian translation should be finally done. Thank you guys for the great support.

Vincenzo

[Michael Thayer]

docca: was the translation you sent still based on the svn version of VirtualBox_pt_BR? The one in the testcase repository is the one you sent with lconvert run over it once to adjust it to 4.1.

[Erico Mendonca]

michael: yes, it was based on SVN. I've reviewed the differences. Apparently lconvert removed some translations, and marked them as "unfinished", but other than that, the number and position of strings are still the same. What exactly was lconvert supposed to do?

[Michael Thayer]

Sorry, not lconvert but lupdate. It is (I hope this is correct) supposed to add strings to the .ts file which are missing there but present in the code and to remove strings which are present in the .ts but not in the code (or rather to mark them as obsolete, so that it can use them as suggestions for translating similar text in future). As far as I can see, a lot of strings have been moved to different places in the code between 4.1 and svn, so lupdate on 4.1 sees them in the new (svn) locations in the .ts file, thinks that they are outdated and marks them as obsolete. However, because the identical strings obviously exist at different locations, Linguist will see the obsolete strings and suggest them as translations for the strings.

Was that understandable? I always have the feeling that I am bad at expressing this sort of thing.

[Michael Thayer]

Updated Italian and Ukranian, thanks Vincenzo and Daniel. And thank you (and the other translators) for your hard work!

[Michael Thayer]

Vincenzo and Daniel, running lupdate on the translation files you submitted most recently does not make any changes to them at all - I think we have got this sorted!

[Richard E van der Luit]

Would you confirm, michael, just to be sure, that VB-nl.ts in the zip i posted at comm 294 is the ts file that shall be used?

Ty

Richard

[Michael Thayer]

Richard, no, I hadn't updated it. That is now fixed - thank you! And once again, lupdate leaves it unchanged when I run it.

I have also updated the files on testcase/nls so that they now contain the latest versions of your translations.

[Erico Mendonca]

michael: I pulled the latest source from SVN and ran lupdate against the copy of the ts file I had:

lupdate -recursive ../full/src/VBox/Frontends/ -ts VirtualBox_pt_BR.ts

I got 16 new strings out of 1667. I reviewed the file in QT Linguist and attached a new updated file.

[fei]

Traditional Chinese (Taiwan) translation updated for VirtualBox 4.1.12

[Michael Thayer]

docca: running lupdate on the file still produces 129 unfinished translations. Of these, all but five have text, so it would presumably be enough to just check that the text is right and accept it in Linguist. I have uploaded the lupdate output file to https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/nls. You might want to check through it and confirm the 124 translations with text, and translate the five others. Again, your work is highly appreciated. Many thanks again!

[Erico Mendonca]

Ok, I think I got it now. Could you check it?

[Michael Thayer]

Right, now it indeed passes lupdate without changes. I have updated 4.1 to use it. Thank you!

[Michael Thayer]

fei: it really is a shame that you are doing all this work that we are unable to use! Would you not consider adding a text to this ticket with your full name (it isn't in the translation file either), whether it is entirely your work or based on the original translation, and to say that you release your translation under the terms of the MIT licence? Since the original translators have been silent for a long time I don't see any problem with replacing their translation with yours.

I just entirely my work based on my translation and already release my translation under the terms of the MIT licence (comment:145). Please use "alan@stable <e-mail removed>" for translator name of Traditional Chinese (Taiwan). Thanks!

[Richard E van der Luit]

Replying to michael:

To all - are the changes I am suggesting to the translation work flow understandable (and do they make sense to you)?

To me they are and the do.

Maybe you can add that Qt Linguist is a part of the Qt SDK package (wasn't clear to me when i began) and that the online installer of Qt SDK let you custom choose Qt Linguist out of the package once the installer is running (choose 'Custom') so that you don't have to download the whole (big) xxxMB package for a relative small program. I have spent quite a lot of time finding a Linux version of Qt Linguist, while it was there all the time.

It also needs the gcc-C++ package to be installed to compile.

regards, Richard

[gymka]

I would like to translate VirtualBox to Lithuanian language and publish my work under MIT licence.

[gymka]

P.S. i would like to maintain Lithuanian language translation, but not with such stupid system like now... can't you simply use normal translation site eg. transifex.net it's free and definitely easier(and clearer) to use(atleast for translator). this thread is like trashcan.

[Erico Mendonca]

Sorry, but QT Linguist is quite an advanced tool for translation. I agree that the process needs some polishing, but it's far from "stupid". Perhaps a web front end to download/upload the correct files for translation would be easier and more organized than using SVN+ticket attachments for those that are not experienced with these tools, but that's all.

[Daniel]

Actually I have no time to handle it through this clutter. Probably it's better to use translation system like transifex to see untranslated strings for each language and manage it there. Here you may inform us about new releases and approve our license stuff. Michael, is it possible?

[Richard E van der Luit]

As a frequent Transifex user (Fedora Project) -and Dutch translator of the site and interface itself- I do agree nowadays it is becoming a great tool and supports .ts format as well.

Don't know if VirtalBox is considered 'open source' enough for signing up a project under the Free Plan, -personally i think so, just try and see-, do know that Transifex makes the work flow very straight forward. Also informs translators 'autmagically' about resource changes and translation status change (amongst other things). Licensing of translations is also done there, just bind your (VirtualBox) project to a license form, done.

Would make your work a lot easier, Michael.

Translators shall still need Qt Linguist to release translated file to .qm format for checking though. Translation issues still at ticket 4503, np.

regards,

no commercial bindings with Transifex ;)

[Lee Chenhwa]

Simplified Chinese (zh_CN) Translation for 4.1.12

[Richard E van der Luit]

Hi Michael, took the liberty to make a test-case at transifex to see for myself:

take a look at this little setup:

​https://www.transifex.net/projects/p/VB-tst/

Again, it is totally free there, no costs (for open source projects, and as VirtualBox states: "..it is also the only professional solution that is freely available as Open Source Software under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2." it qualifies fine there.)

If you click on a translation language it opens a new window with download option (for Qt Linguist use) or online translation (Lotte), amongst other features.

It is quite easy to setup the project:

You could sign up yourself (free), start a project, add resources (VirtualBox_xx_YY.ts and Qt_xx_YY.ts) fill out the rest (name filetype etc etc), than add all the language translations to the resource (only once). Translators of VB should signup to Transifex (as far as they are not already) and request membership of translation team of their language (click on the desired language , option join team). As maintainer you can approve the request. If you do, that translator shall be authorized to update his language. Translators are bound to the license you as a maintainer have indicated when making the project ('other open source' = also GPL, you can even force a specific CLA)

Never had made a project there myself, but piece of cake.

[Richard E van der Luit]

Redone corrections -lost due conversion issues- and additional corrections Dutch translation 4.1.12

Michael, would you confirm please ;)

regards Richard

[Michael Thayer]

Sorry for the delay in answering. I updated the Lithuanian, Dutch and Traditional Chinese translations - thank you Richard, Algimantas and Alan! (Did I miss anyone?)

Algimantas, I will take a look at transifex when I have time, but if we can't do text strings from the non-FOSS component that may be a bit of a blocker (can't say for sure without checking though - it may be that all of our text strings are in the open source part). I think though that the confusion in this thread was simply a reflection of the confusion in my head as I got to grips with the process, and that it should be past now!

That said, I think that your translation was still based on the svn version, as there were still thirty one untranslated strings in it. I have uploaded the version adjusted for VirtualBox 4.1, including your updates, to https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/nls/VirtualBox_lt.ts - would you be able to take a look at that? Thanks!

[gymka]

updated few Lithuanian translation strings.(i have more important translations, maybe one day finish whole translation:)) ​http://www.failai.lt/drowqd2qgfl2/VirtualBox_lt.zip.htm

[Michael Thayer]

gymka: actually after your last update there are now 38 untranslated strings instead of 31, and a few other changes which I'm not sure are intended, such as removing your own name from the translator list. How exactly did you produce that new version from the link which I gave in comment 320? And could you upload translations as attachments to this ticket rather than provide links to download sites?

I haven't yet updated the file as I wanted to wait for your answer first.

[gymka]

michael: i downloaded file from comment 320 with md5sum: b3cec405f90a65c9e7b2b31cb4f3198a opened in qtlinguist and in bottom of screen i see: 1487/1652 so 165 strings is not translated/fuzzy, i don't know there qtlinguist shows statistics about untranslated strings, but there definitely more then 38. tool "pocount"(it understands and .ts files) confirm statistics: translated: 1485 fuzzy: 50 untranslated: 117

You attached right file?

P.S. i not found how to attach file, so posted URL.

[Michael Thayer]

I'm sorry, it was indeed the wrong file. https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/nls/VirtualBox_lt.ts now points to the file you uploaded in comment 321, run though lupdate to map the text to the 4.1.12 strings.

You can attach files to this ticket using the upload button near the top of the page, under the current list of attachments.

I assume (but please correct me if I am wrong!) that Mindaugas is also no longer wanting to maintain the translation, so I will mark it as unmaintained for now.

Done. I assume that Ciro is monitoring this ticket if he is still interested and is fine with the change. I can't remove him from the list of translators in the translation file of course.

[Vincenzo Reale]

He isn't active anymore on the Italian translation. He worked really hard on the Italian translation, so I think you should keep his name in the translator list, but I would avoid him bug reports from users.

Thank you.

I have uploaded the translation files for 4.2 to

https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/nls/4.2/

Please bear in mind that there are likely to be a number of changes between now and the final release, but I hope (!) that they will mainly be additions and not removal of strings which have already been translated. And of course given that there is quite a lot of new text in there it probably really makes sense to have a bit more time to start. Feel free to submit work in progress if you have translated a reasonable amount, as we may do additional pre-releases.

(And as usual, a confirmation that you are submitting the translation under the MIT licence when you do a new upload is always welcome.)

Many thanks to you and to all our hard-working translators!

Daniel, I updated the Ukranian translation with the file you provided - thanks! The version in https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/nls/4.2/ now contains all your updates and all strings from 4.2 RC 3, so you can download that and continue working from there.

I disabled the Basque, Finish, Galician, Khmer, Polish, Romanian, Slovak and Turkish translations for now, as they are less than 80% complete (they are still on the server though) and completely removed the Greek translation (empty) and the Arabic one (unclear licencing).

Richard, sorry about that. The files transited through a virtual machine in which I was too lazy to set the right date. They should be up to date though.

[Vincenzo Reale]

Same problem for the Italian translation. My latest commit reports 1722/1722, 1662/1715 the one on the repository.

[Michael Thayer]

Correctly updated the files in the directory to what is currently in our repository. Italian is at 100% (curiously, when I grep it I find 18 untranslated strings, but Linguist doesn't report them) and Dutch has nine translations missing. Richard, I will check that I really checked in everything you submitted.

[Michael Thayer]

Looks like the nine untranslated strings in the Dutch translation are genuine - your translation contains 1722 translated strings, but when I run it through the updater it switches nine to untranslated again.

The untranslated strings in the Italian look harmless - things which would probably be translated the same as the original, like "SCSI". Search for "<translation></translation>" in the file if you are interested.

[Michael Thayer]

Temporarily disabled Japanese too.

The untranslated strings in the Italian look harmless - things which would probably be translated the same as the original, like "SCSI". Search for "<translation></translation>" in the file if you are interested.

Fixed all missing translations, thank you for reporting. Please, update VirtualBox_it.ts.

Updated Italian translation for 4.2.0 (VirtualBox_it.ts 100% qt_it.ts 83%)

Great! Checked in and updated.

[Richard E van der Luit]

Ty michael, for looking into it. Corrected the strings, I think. Should be fine now. Please let me know if not. Updated Dutch (nl) translation 4.2.0 (100%) 1722/1722

(note to myself - date stamp downloaded and corrected translation file from /testcase/nls/4.2/ was 30.08.2012)

[Lee Chenhwa]

Updated zh_CN translation for 4.2.

[Michael Thayer]

Updated the Dutch translation, thanks Richard. (Sorry, I missed the Simplified Chinese, as I only get e-mail notification on comments, not on uploads!) I'm afraid that three strings did get added after the last release candidate. Updated Linguist files are available for download on https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/nls/4.2/. And for information, we will probably disable translations which are less than 80% complete in the 4.2 release (exceptions are possible).

Thanks all!

[Michael Thayer]

Once again, a request to all: if you are currently part way through the translating process, please send frequent updates rather than waiting until your translation is one hundred percent complete, so that we can be sure that as much as possible makes it into the release!

Thank you Ikuya and Shushi! Technically we should wait for Toshimitsu's agreement before adding you to the list of translators, but as the Japanese translation hasn't been updated for a while I will assume it is fine by him unless he objects.

I uploaded your translation to https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/nls/4.2/, updated with a couple of missing (untranslated) strings.

[Michael Thayer]

Updated the Bulgarian translation - thanks Stoyan! Unfortunately I will have to disable Catalan, Danish, French (sadly no time to do it myself this time), Indonesian, Lithuanian, Serbian and Swedish for now.

[Burak Yavuz]

Hello, I continue to translate virtualbox 4.2 to Turkish with files which I download from https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/nls/4.2/. I take these two files VirtualBox_tr.ts and qt_tr.ts. When I downloaded VirtualBox_tr.ts file, it's date on site is Sep. 6th. But now it is Sep. 7th. Is it problem to work over Sep. 6th file? Can updates (new strings) be added to my attached files later? There are lots of missing strings of course and also corrections, so it takes some time. Regards

[Michael Thayer]

BouRock, yes that is no problem. If possible, provide me with regular updates and I will take care of incorporating them into VirtualBox. It probably makes sense to get updated files from virtualbox.org once I have updated them with your translations and to keep on working with the new files of course, though it certainly won't be a catastrophe if you don't (you will have to get the updates at some point if you want to be sure you have translated everything as we add new text to translate every so often).

[Burak Yavuz]

Of course michael. It is possible. But I was late. 4.2 Final has been released and it does not contain turkish language. I attached language file. When you add new lines and update on site I will download and continue.

[Pau Iranzo]

Hi,

I've updated the Catalan translation. I'm the same maintainer (Pau Iranzo), but I've had to register a new account because the old one didn't seem to work (I can't replace existing Catalan files). I hope that's not a problem.

Thanks!

[Michael Thayer]

Pau, Burak - great! I would ask you both to (re-)submit the "published under the terms of the MIT license" bit. Thank you very much for your work, which is much appreciated!

[Burak Yavuz]

You are welcome, but still not finished. micheal please use the latest files which I sent a minute ago.

Regards

[Burak Yavuz]

Hello michael, I want to continue to translation, so do I wait you to put language files which they have been updated with new strings to the site (https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/nls/4.2/) or do I continue with my own files? Because I want to continue with updated files on the site from downloading there.

[Michael Thayer]

BouRock: done! Many thanks.

[Michael Thayer]

Pau, sorry, but might I ask again for your MIT statement? I currently have no idea about when 4.2.2 is due, but I would love to have your translation in it. Thanks!

[David González]

Updated Spanish (es) translation

[Vincenzo Reale]

michael, I'm translating the Windows installer wxl file. Is there a specific task to commit it?

Thank you in advance.

[Michael Thayer]

Updated the Spanish and Turkish translations - thank you David and Burak! Vincenzo, we don't have any procedures in place for that, so if you just attach it to this ticket like the other translation files I will update it.

[Burak Yavuz]

michael, I finished VirtualBox_tr.ts file translation but I noticed that during the translation test there are several missing strings which are not available in language files to translate. These are which I noticed (maybe there are more);

-saving the machine state

-saving the execution state of the virtual machine ...

-restoring virtual machine

-merging differencing image '%1'

-taking snapshot of the virtual machine state

-Cloning disk '%1'

-Cloning Machine

-Hard disk '%1' has more than one child hard disk (%2)

-Implementation of the USB 2.0 controller not found!

-Because the USB 2.0 controller state is part of the saved VM state, the VM cannot be started. To fix this problem, either install the '%1' or disable USB 2.0 support in the VM settings (VERR_NOT_FOUND).

[Vincenzo Reale]

Replying to michael:

Vincenzo, we don't have any procedures in place for that, so if you just attach it to this ticket like the other translation files I will update it.

Thank you for your reply. The translation isn't done, but I'm working on it.
Regards.

Updated the Turkish translation and added the Italian Windows installer translation - thank you Burak and Vincenzo!

Burak, those strings are not in the translation interface. I will ask our interface maintainer what he thinks about it. I have marked your translation as 99% complete, but the remaining strings are just ones which are marked as unfinished but still contain text. You should go through with Qt Linguist and confirm that they are correct (they are probably strings kept after an update) but it isn't very urgent, as they will still be used in the mean-time.

[co22]

The Farsi (<Fa_ir>) translation attached here by <Hessam Mohamadi> is published under the terms of the MIT license. so please add it in a VirtualBox.also if you need translation installer send to me to translate it in later

I especially marked as unfinished them to find the places which I was not sure the strings. If it be needed to show 100% I can mark as finish. I will take note these.

Also I want to make Windows installer translation if needed. Where can I find the original language file?

[Michael Thayer]

Hessam, Burak, thank you! I will upload your translations later. Burak, if you were intentionally marking those strings as unfinished that seems fine to me. I can still count them as finished in my statistics if you like. The current Windows installer language files are at:

<https://www.virtualbox.org/browser/vbox/trunk/src/VBox/Installer/win/Languages>

I haven't looked at them for a while, but it seems to me that you can start with the English one and modify that to produce a translation.

[Michael Thayer]

Burak, I went over those strings briefly with our interface developer. The "statistics" ones are the names assigned to the controllers, and can be changed by the user in the machine settings (don't ask me if that makes sense for the average user). The initial name is given when the machine is created, so if you create new machines those names will be taken from your translation.

Most of the others are internally not part of the user interface - they are messages received from the "internals" of VirtualBox and displayed by the interface. We thought that the best way to solve that might be to display a simple translatable message instead, and show the "internal" messages inside a "details" pane, something like this:

​http://lockergnome.net/upfiles/ubuntuupdate.png

Hope that made some sense.

[Burak Yavuz]

Yes, thank you for the explanation

[co22]

[Michael Thayer]

Hessam, I updated the Farsi translation again - thank you! The issues with untranslated text are those which Burak pointed out and which we discussed a few comments above. As that text comes from a different - untranslated - part of VirtualBox it will stay untranslated for the immediate future, but we will look at at least making it look nicer, in the 4.2 series if we manage and later if not. We will also look at putting file names on their own line like you suggested. I noticed a couple of other issues with our right-to-left handling when I took a brief look at VirtualBox with your translation, like the bracket positions in the language selector and the items in the main window which start with a colon (:), continue with the item name and finish with the value. Again, we will look at this when we find time.

Again, thank you for your contribution!

[co22]

[Dsen]

About that issue represented in screen-shots of comment 451: This is quite complex to resolve fast as that untranslated English text is coming into GUI from Main (other component which doesn't support translations for now). GUI in that case just reflects incoming text, nothing more. First of all, we should invent some convenient way to make this (and similar) text translated before resolving that issue. So, I think that could be done only to next major release (4.3), not earlier.

[Michael Thayer]

Pau, sorry for the slow reaction time. I have now updated the Catalan translations. Thank you very much.

[Michael Thayer]

Benjamin, we have just had a French translation of the user manual contributed (see the vbox-dev mailing list<1>) and the translator would very much appreciate your input. As I don't think I have your e-mail address (mine is michael dot thayer at if you want to contact me first) I am commenting here to tell you.

[Michael Thayer]

Dear All, VirtualBox 4.3 is due out quite soon and so we have frozen - let's see whether we can really maintain that until the release - the translatable strings for 4.3.0 today. The language files for translation can now be downloaded<1>. Tom and Richard, I am afraid that I was too slow noticing your recent updates to incorporate them into the language files for 4.3, but I will add them to 4.2. Thank you very much!

And many thanks to all for your efforts.

<1> https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/nls/4.3/

[Michael Thayer]

By the way, for your information I did a bit of clean-up of the English language text - in particular I changed the term medium to disk image file, the terms mount/unmount for disk image files to insert/eject and the word "displays" at the beginning of many floating help texts for text entry boxes to "holds" (e.g. "Displays the name for this network." becomes "Holds the name for this network."; if anyone has a better suggestion feel free to make it, as I don't quite like it.) For convenience, and because I think this is a matter for the translator to decide anyway, I didn't invalidate the translations for these pieces of text.

[Michael Thayer]

Burak, it seems that your translation was still incorrectly disabled in 4.2 - very sorry about that, I have re-enabled it in 4.2 and 4.3.

[Burak Yavuz]

This is bad news, but no problem. OK I will complete missing translations now and send you. And what about the installer translation, I send wxl file a time ago?

[Richard E van der Luit]

Hi Michael,

currently translating VB 4.3, and noticed a typo in source string:

@UIMachineSettingsDisplay:

The virtual machine is set up to use hardware graphics acceleration and the operating system hint is set to Windows Vista or later. For best performance you should set the machine's video memory to at least b>%1</b>.

notice the missing '<' where bold should begin.

[Michael Thayer]

Richard, thanks for pointing that out. I can fix it without invalidating any translations, but I will wait until shortly before the release and probably batch it with a couple of other changes so as not to interfere with people translating just now (I will have to change the translation files to avoid forcing people to re-translate).

[Richard E van der Luit]

ok,

another thing (may be not OT), i noticed there is a parallel port section in the strings, but not in the running GUI. Am I missing something? PBKAC?

[Michael Thayer]

You are quite right. Parallel port support was added to the GUI but not enabled for 4.3, so the strings are there but not used.

Hi, I've attatched a file with Japanese translation and some translations modified for 4.3 Beta3. Above comment is wrong.

Thanks,

[Michael Thayer]

Ikuya and Burak, I have updated your translations - thank you!

David, I am afraid that for some reason the Spanish translation file turned out to contain a number of outdated texts in it. I have been able to fix half of them or more (a lot of the ones where the changed English text did not really affect the Spanish, though you might want to replace "diálogo" with "ventana" to match the English language changes), but there are still about eighty left that I was not able to fix. The updated file is available to download from

https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/nls/4.3/VirtualBox_es.ts

Sorry about that!

If i take the file from https://www.virtualbox.org/browser/vbox/trunk/src/VBox/Frontends/VirtualBox/nls, and start working on it, I am working on the right file, don't I?

• consistency corrections
  
• small terminology change
  
• some typo's

Is it worth to change the 4.2. language file as well (I noticed that using 4.3-ts doesn't quite work well for 4.2.18), Michael? Will there be an other update for 4.2.18 -> 4.2.xx?

Hi Michael,
the Italian revision you committed is not the last one.
On comment 477 you'll find the complete revision.

Thank you,
Vincenzo

[Michael Thayer]

Vincenzo,

Am I doing something wrong here? I downloaded the version before comment 477 again and it is identical to what is in the repository now (what I uploaded there yesterday).

Richard,

The 4.2 translation files are separate and still in the 4.2 directory. The ones in the subversion repository are currently the same as the 4.3 ones, but this will change after 4.3 is released (or sometime before or after). And I saw that the 4.2 ones were indeed missing three texts to translate, so I updated them.

Thank you all.

Hi Michael,

I just downloaded the zip from comment 477. It's 100% translated (1756/1756). The one on the repo is at 1727/1756.

[Michael Thayer]

Vincenzo, sorry, I updated the table in this ticket incorrectly - the Italian translation in the repository is identical to the one before comment 477 and one hundred percent complete. Not sure if I updated the version on virtualbox.org, I have done that now in any case.

Thank you.

Updated Dutch translation for 4.2.18 and above.

VB 4.2.x -> VirtualBox_nl.4.zip

-consistency corrections
-small terminology change
-some typo's

There will be more corrections for the 4.3.0 branche this week

[Richard E van der Luit]

Updated Dutch translation for 4.2.18 and above

[Michael Thayer]

Updated the Dutch translation - thank you Richard! For your information, something went wrong during the merge in and I ended up with three incomplete strings, which I corrected myself as follows:

"Save the virtual machine state" -> "De staat van de virtuele machine opslaan"
"Power off the virtual machine" -> "De virtuele machine uitzetten"
"Import Virtual Appliance" -> "Importeer Virtual Applicance"

If that is wrong you may want to correct it; in any case you should download the translation file again before making any new changes.

[Richard E van der Luit]

Hi Michael,

appeared i ve mixed some translation versions (working on diff computers) within every branche.

Files attached are the latest files for 4.2.18 and 4.3.0, replacing all other versions I have uploaded.

Dutch updated:

• VB 4.2.x -> VirtualBox_nl.42.zip (new name for 4.2.x upload, replacing VB_nl.4)
• VB 4.3.x -> VirtualBox_nl.43.zip

Please only use these ones, and let me know if there were some merging problems also.

Regards

[Richard E van der Luit]

VB 4.2.x -> VirtualBox_nl.42.zip (new name for 4.2.x upload, replacing VB_nl.4)

[Michael Thayer]

Thanks Richard, I have updated our repository with both files.

There was a small technical change to the translation files in the mean-time. I have updated the files on the web page and made the necessary fixes to the updated Dutch translation.

[Lee Chenhwa]

Update zh_CN translation for 4.3

[Pau Iranzo]

Hi,

I would like to propose a 'better' way of keeping track of translations, sending translations, etc. Why not use Transifex as a translation platform for VirtualBox?

• Translators will have a clear view of the translation status
• It will be possible to translate from the website
• VirtualBox translations responsible will have more control over the different teams
• Retrieving the translations will be easier

What do you think?

[Erico Mendonca]

Sorry for the delay. I agree with PauGNU's comment, BTW. I never got a notification for version 4.3, only got curious to what was happening when I saw other updates being sent to the ticket weeks later. We really need a better way...

[radek]

Greetings from Poland :)
I'll gladly continue Polish translation for VirtualBox (4.3 and future releases). Is there a special formal content that I need to post here? I'll update existing translation file(it's for older version but I may update it). Last official translation was prepared by Dawid Wrobel, Adrian Lubik, Wiktor Wandachowicz, (they are listed in translation file). I understand that I may continue their work?

[Michael Thayer]

Pau, Erico, very sorry that you didn't get the update notification. Are you getting notifications now? I'm afraid that it would probably be too difficult to get permission to use Transifex, especially as they would probably be keen to decide that we are not open enough and therefore a paying project. I will ask, but please don't hold your breath.

I uploaded the Hungarian, traditional Chinese and Brazilian Portuguese translations - thank you Tom, Lee and Erico! I also updated the translation files on the web page<1> with a couple of minor changes (there may be more to come before the next 4.3.x release). If anyone has translation changes which they have not yet uploaded to this ticket, just upload them and I will add the changes to the files you upload.

<1> https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/nls/4.3/

[Michael Thayer]

Radek, that would be great. What you need to do is to download the Polish translation file from the web page<1>, translate it using Qt4 Linguist and upload the translated .ts file to this page, along with a statement that you (Full name preferred) submit it to us under the MIT licence.

<1> https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/nls/4.3/

By the way, Tom and Lee, I didn't see your updates immediately as you did not attach a comment. I unfortunately do not get notifications for file uploads.

[Lee Chenhwa]

[Lee Chenhwa]

[Erico Mendonca]

Thanks, Michael. I see that Transifex has a community edition. Have you considered (although I know it's very unlikely...) using it? BTW, I guess I asked this a long time ago and got a negative response, but can we translate the user manual as well?

[Michael Thayer]

Thank you Lee for the fast update. Erico, we do now have a French translation of the user manual, and would be happy to take additional ones, though we still have to take a final decision when we see how much maintenance work it will be. Manual translations are happening on the vbox-dev mailing list.

Updated the Turkish, Italian and Dutch translations - thank you Burak, Vincenzo and Richard. Burak, could you please post a comment next time as well as uploading the file, as there is a danger I will miss your translation if you do not? Richard, there is still one "unfinished" item in your translation:

Source: The actual default path value will be displayed after accepting the changes and opening this window again.

Translation, type="unfinished": De daadwerkelijke waarde van het standaardpad wordt pas weergegeven na acceptatie van de wijzigingen en het opnieuw openen van dit dialoog.

If that is acceptable to you I will replace the word "dialoog" with "venster" and mark it as finished.

.

Yes, that is correct, thank you.

[Michael Thayer]

Richard - done.

I updated the files on the server with a couple more adjusted strings. Probably not worth downloading them just for those strings (the translations are just marked "unfinished", not invalidated - it is just more "Dialog" -> "Window" and similar things) as there will probably anyway be more coming before the next minor release. However if you are going to be translating anyway please use the new files.

Tom, the Hungarian translation of "Writethrough" is left as "Writethrough" in English and marked as unfinished. Is that intended? If it is meant to be that way then everything is fine and there is no need to update your translation again.

[evin]

Michael, yes. We don't have Hungarian word for that. And because left unfinished, next time I won't forget to check this again. Until than we decide what happens with that word.

And thank you for your question. :)

Basque Translation

[Michael Thayer]

Xabier, thank you for the update! There were a couple of issues with the file you submitted, so I uploaded an adjusted version to the web page<1> - could you download that and make adjustments there? I re-added the old translator's name, since I assume that you did not re-start the translation entirely. I will re-enable the Basque translation once it passes 80% complete.

<1> https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/nls/4.3/VirtualBox_eu.ts

Hi michael,

Thanks for add it. I update and send it you. I try to complete ASAP.

About old translator, I rewrite all strings because only few lines were translated.

[Azpidatziak]

Basque Update

[Michael Thayer]

Updated and enabled the Basque translation. Thank you Xabier! I haven't updated the download link as there were no additional changes needed to the file.

[Azpidatziak]

Basque Translation (virtualbox_eu + qt_eu)

[Azpidatziak]

Hi michael,

Thanks for enabled. I attached last update here with both .ts files. Please can you update "legal status" (comment:ticket) to my translation?

[Michael Thayer]

Thank you for pointing that out - I had changed the legal status in the line above "Basque" by mistake! I wonder, did you upload the wrong files? I could see no changes in VirtualBox_eu.3.zip over the last version.

[Azpidatziak]

Hi michael,

Thanks for change. It's same file, I simply included qt_eu in the same .zip archive.

Thank you Daniel, updated and re-enabled. The file you were using for your translation does not seem to have been quite up-to-date, so your translation is currently at 98.4%. If you want to fix that you can update the file on the server:

Vytautas, thank you! I still need permission to use the translation under the MIT licence, and preferably your full name. You should also add your name to the list of translators in the translation file. I will not re-enable the Lithuanian translation yet, but when you have translated more I will do that.

David, I have not updated your translation yet, as the old one was over 99% complete and this one is 98% complete - is this expected?

[David González]

Hi Michael,

No, the translation in VirtualBox_es.ts.20.zip should be 100% complete, I downloaded and reviewed the file and with Qt Linguist 4 I don't see any unfinished string.

[Michael Thayer]

David, sorry for the delay replying. I think you may not have had the latest file from the web page. I am uploading your file again as an attachment, updated to contain the missing translations (there seem to be six of them). Many thanks for your work!

Stoyan, thank you for the update! In fact we had not yet updated the 5.0 translation files with the new translatable text, as there is probably more text to come. Nonetheless I have done that now and the new files are available here:

https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/nls/5.0/

Stoyan, your changes are in there, but there is now also new, untranslated text in the Bulgarian file. There will probably be more updates to all files before the final release, but feel free to start translating and submitting anyway.

Thanks to all.

[neter_bg]

Bulgarian translation of VirtualBox (current files for v5.0.0). I know that it is too early for the final variant but I want to compensate the non-full bulgarian translation for 4.3 with max possible full translation for 5.0 from its start :)

https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/nls/5.0/

There will probably be a few more small changes, so if your translations are already nearly complete it is probably worth waiting a bit before submitting new ones.

And since this ticket is getting very big and takes far too long for my browser to load, I have created a new one - ticket #14091 - and will close this one. Follow up comments should go to #14091. I will only add a few comments here when there are translation text updates so that people who have not yet commented on the new ticket get notified.

[Michael Thayer]

We noticed there was some confusion: you will not get notifications about changes to the new ticket until you post at least one comment there (I don't know if uploading a file is enough I'm afraid).

[Michael Thayer]

Disabled Catalan, Danish and French for now as they were under 75% completion. I will re-enable them as soon as they are updated - see ticket #14091.
