Po-files in SVN have a strange problem

Hello,

As I was working on Esperanto translation for gimp, I noticed that it (eo.po).. and the following .po files (in /po/ directory), have a strange problem with a message.

pl fr
ru
ja
lt
oc

One or two messages (the english part) refer to 'Colorsize' where they should refer to 'Colorize'
(as in 'save colorize settings' and 'export colorize settings').

I assume this was caused by typos in the source code, later corrected. However, when I ran an update, this message was not removed or replaced by a correct one.. or even left alone while the correct message was added.
So, perhaps these files need to be manually changed to correct the message. That's what I did for eo.po (in my local copy)

That is correct.

How exactly do you update the po files?

../intltool-update eo

However, when I run an update on any of the other .po's, it works fine (no 'Colorsize' message any more, 'Colorize'). Strange.

This is probably because there is bug in your version of intltools or that version is too old.

For instance, the version from Ubuntu 8.04.1 doesn't deal with msgctxt reliably. It's very selective about which messages to put into a PO file and which not.

For Hardy, you can download a newer version from http://svenfoo.org/hardy-backports/

Thank you Sven, I installed that.

More likely the problem is that your copy of po/Makefile.in.in is not uptodate. You can check that using the command 'svn status'.

This file used to be overwritten by glib-gettextize (which is run by autogen.sh). And the version you have then does not have the proper flags for the xgettext which that are needed to make msgctxt work. I have now tried to fix this problem in trunk.
