Rewrites the Rescuezilla frontend in the Python3 programming language (rescuezilla#111), adding the ability to backup and restore hard drives in Clonezilla image format, among many other major including the ability to restore partitions individually. (rescuezilla#46) For time efficiency and maximum flexibility around refactoring, this rewrite was completed as a single monolithic commit. A brief summary of the key change: * Added Clonezilla support (rescuezilla#4, rescuezilla#44) * Added ability to restore individual partitions, and optional ability to not overwrite partition table (rescuezilla#46) * Refactored the frontend to ensure information moves through the Rescuezilla wizard in a more modular fashion. (rescuezilla#6, rescuezilla#48, rescuezilla#49, rescuezilla#95, rescuezilla#96) * Ports Glade GTKBuilder XML file from GTK2 to GTK3 * Updates French/German/Spanish translations (rescuezilla#67) * Improves exit code handling and error messages (rescuezilla#29) Some images have been imported and modified from external sources [1] [2] [3] [1] Clonezilla icon: https://clonezilla.org/screenshots/?op=show&filepath=./album//01_DRBL-Clonezilla-logo/clonezilla_logo1.jpg [2] Cropped and scaled old 1.0.4:src/livecd/image/isolinux/bg_redo.png [3] warning icon taken from: https://publicdomainvectors.org/en/free-clipart/Warning-vector-symbol/78747.html

The log file is generally not of interest to anybody except during debugging (usually by a software developer). The only text which ever needs to be translated is what's directly displayed to the user via a frontend application.
The unofficial German, and unofficial French Redo Backup and Recovery translations both translated print() statements which get written to the log. These translations were imported into Rescuezilla, and a user later submitted a Spanish based on the Translation HOWTO instructions thus translated every line which was translated in the German translation file.
To stop future translators needlessly waste effort, it's a good idea to remove all the localization statements from the print() calls (and the matching lines in the PO/KO translation files)/ Especially since future translators may not be a Linux enthusiast or software developer so cannot easily be able to translate certain words in the log file statements such as "device nodes".
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
