[arvchristos]

http://www.gnu.de/documents/gpl-3.0.de.html for license.

Would you like to contribute the license text to locales/de directory?

[muelletr]

When I execute the translation for the help pages from the command prompt I get an error

can't open file ./PageNumberingAddon.oxt_help_pages_de/pages/base.po

[arvchristos]

@muelletr Have you installed the dependencies of l10n-utility as stated in the repo?

[MasterOfTheTiger]

Would you like to contribute the license text to locales/de directory?

There should be a disclaimer that states that the German translation does not represent the actual licensing requirements, but only helps Germans that do not understand English to understand the GPL license. You do not want people to misunderstand that.

Oh wait, there is a disclaimer there already. I will submit a pull request with the license if that is okay with you (I do not actually know German).

[arvchristos]

@MasterOfTheTiger sure, we could require each translation to include such a disclaimer.

[muelletr]

@arvchristos yes, I installed all the packages mentioned in the readme

[arvchristos]

@muelletr Does this file exist in your directory?

[muelletr]

@arvchristos the directory for the german version is empty

[arvchristos]

you should execute the l10next.py utility with the files generated by this. After the first execution you ended with two additional directories. Those should exist for the next execution of l10next.py.

I try to understand where the problem is so forgive anything that seems irrelevant

[muelletr]

I tried it again, the directories are created but they are empty

[arvchristos]

Have you installed itstool?

[muelletr]

Yes, I did

[arvchristos]

Are you running on windows platform?

[muelletr]

No, on Ubuntu

[arvchristos]

Please copy l10next.py and rules.its to locales/de and then rerun the script

[muelletr]

Now it works! Thank you

[MasterOfTheTiger]

@arvchristos Where should the license file be? And should the file name simply be LICENSE?

[arvchristos]

@MasterOfTheTiger The license file should be included in:
locales/de/PageNumberingAddon.oxt_extracted/Legal/

Please follow the naming scheme seen in other files on the same directory.

[MasterOfTheTiger]

@arvchristos So licese-de.txt? I will submit a pull request and see if that is what you want.

[arvchristos]

Yes !
