Hi,<br>
<br>
while looking at all the translatable packages in Launchpad my eyes got<br>
caught by some KDE packages that are without translations or with<br>
translations half done.<br>
<br>
Nothing new for a translation team, but the problem is that I and nobody<br>
in the Italian team that are KDE upstream translators know if those<br>
packages are coming from upstream, if they are coming from upstream but<br>
have been modified for Kubuntu or are Kubuntu specific.<br>
<br>
The one that really caught my eyes, and when I raised this issue, is<br>
system-config-printer-kde. I manually re-imported it because I knew it<br>
was fully translated upstream, but like for many other languages it is<br>
not.<br>
<br>
I'm linking some of those packages here:<br>
<br>
- system-config-printer-kde <a href="http://is.gd/qz6T" target="_blank">http://is.gd/qz6T</a><br>
- plasma-engine-systemmonitor <a href="http://is.gd/qztj" target="_blank">http://is.gd/qztj</a><br>
- plasma-applet-networkmanager <a href="http://is.gd/qzua" target="_blank">http://is.gd/qzua</a><br>
- plasma-applet-networkmanagement <a href="http://is.gd/qzzC" target="_blank">http://is.gd/qzzC</a><br>
- kpackagekit <a href="http://is.gd/qzBN" target="_blank">http://is.gd/qzBN</a> (there is an upstream version of this<br>
package, but I can't find translations in it)<br>
- and others...<br>
<br>
Is there a way to find out if packages like those are not coming from<br>
upstream or if they have been customized for Kubuntu? Who should I / we<br>
contact?<br>
<br>
Looking at the Overview page of one package sometimes you may guess if<br>
it's coming from upstream or not... but it's not the best way to look<br>
into it...<br>
<br>
Other translators know something more?<br>
<br>
Any help to cast some light here would be appreciate.<br>
<br>
Cheers.<br>
