french translation for "Last login" on tty1-tty6
Last modified: 2006-04-21 07:06:37 UTC
1. spacings wrong/differs missing spaces after "2600" and after "sur" there are extra spaces before ":", in the English version there where no spaces. 2. the date format is not localized, this seems wrong. I'd prefer the european format or everything in English 3. this is only on text consoles, when connected through telnet or ssh, you get the english message linux login: root Mot de passe : Dernière connexion : jeu mar 9 12:15:18 UTC 2006de localhostsur pts/2 Have a lot of fun...
thanks for the report.
It seems to originate from Linux-PAM/Linux-PAM.fr.po. If you use French a localized date is probalby okay. If you do not like it, set LC_TIME accordingly. Some French translator prefer a space before punctation characters, even if typewriter fonts are in use. Kerry please to check, how we should proceed.
strftime is marked in Linux-PAM for translation (So you can change the order or content of "jeu mar 9 12:15:18 UTC 2006" yourself) in po file, but was missing in SVN. I will commit now a new pot file. the german po file is using it already the following way: #. TRANSLATORS: "strftime options for date of last login" #: modules/pam_lastlog/pam_lastlog.c:187 msgid " %a %b %e %H:%M:%S %Z %Y" msgstr " %A, den %d. %B %Y, %H:%M:%S %Z"
Thanks! Copied on the FTP server for translation updates. Shane, please pick it up from the LCN repository.
Hi Kerry, this bug can be fixed in the file Linux-PAM.xx.po which you will find in the Linux-PAM folder of the LCN repository.
Changed in Linux-PAM for French #. TRANSLATORS: "strftime options for date of last login" #: modules/pam_lastlog/pam_lastlog.c:187 msgid " %a %b %e %H:%M:%S %Z %Y" msgstr " %a %e %b %Y, %H:%M:%S %Z " Should be in RC2.
I checked the changes in RC1, there were still some spacing problems, so I took a look to the fr.po file (sourceforge cvs). So here is my change proposal as a "diff -u" against latest version (rev 1.28)
Created attachment 79172 [details] diff -u against pam/Linux-PAM/po/fr.po rev 1.28
Thanks Michel, I've implemented your changes. Should be in for RC2.
