How to fix translation errors on launchpad and install the bleeding edge language files from launchpad?

  • Go to the efw launchpad translation page launchpad.net/efw/trunk/+pots/efw and choose the language you prefer.
  • Search the string you would like to correct, fix it and by selecting New Translation and entering the correct translation.
  • Save

The corrected translation is now available on launchpad. In order to install the new language file on your system follow these steps:
  • Follow the link entitled Download on the left of the translation page on the efw Launchpad page
  • Select MO format, which is the compiled binary format.
  • Confirm Download which sends you an email with a link to the desired file. This may take a couple of minutes.
Once you got the email with the link to the mo file
  • download the mo file. It will be called XX.mo, where for XX stands the corresponding ISO 639 language code. (For example de for German). If it is a country specific translation file, the country code will be added with a separating underline. (For example pt_BR for brasilian portuguese).
  • copy the file to your Endian firewall using an SSH client (scp, winscp)
  • move the file to /usr/share/locale/XX/LC_MESSAGES/efw.mo

    mv XX.mo /usr/share/locale/XX/LC_MESSAGES/efw.mo


    Pay attention to replace XX with the corresponding language code.
