Translation of system messages to pt-Br

Hi!

I'm a teacher of Civil Engineering Federal University of Rio Grande do
Sul, in Brazil. I've been using MoinMoin since last November, to store
some contents of my classes.

The version of Moin Moin I've been using is (still) 1.2.3, in a linux
box, so I decided to upgrade to 1.3.4. However, after some months of
use I've discovered that the language is an important issue in this
kind of collaborative tool, and unfortunatelly the system pages in
portuguese are not present in 1.3.4.

So, I've translated the system pages to pt-BR using kbabel, and did a
fine grain polishing using vimdiff. After all, the pt-BR.po compiled
Ok. But when I tried to install in an 1.3.3 instalation (in my
notebook), I received an error message soon after changing the
language preferences to Brazilian Portuguese in UserPreferences page.

Putting all together, I'm in a mess. Could someone give me some hint
about of what is going wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

I changed the name of pt-BR.po to pt.po and compiled again. Now,
everything is running smoothly! Is there detail in the code that stops
languages with xx-xx iso format to be properly handled by MoinMoin?
Possible bug?

How could I send the POT file to be included in the next version of MoinMoin?

Regards,

Eduardo Isatto

Either you did not update meta.py or requested just pt. I think it does not
fallback in that case.

Please read http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinDev/Translation
It is explained there. If you have questions left, ask here :-)

Kind regards,
