Merge lp:~jbicha/ubuntu-docs/lp969235-ctrl-super-keyboard-shortcuts into lp:ubuntu-docs/precise

[Jeremy Bícha]

[David Planella (dpm)]

Sounds sensible to me. However, that will break quite a lot of existing translations. In order to avoid it, if you apply this change, could you please:

1. Apply the s/Meta/Super/g substitution to the .pot file and all the .po files in the precise-translations docs branch [1] (both in the msgid and msgstr fields)
2. Merge the precise-translations branch with trunk (*), so that Launchpad can import the new translations

Let me know if we can help with any of this.

Cheers,
David.

(*) I've noticed Launchpad changes the directory layout on the precise-translations branch to be a flat listing of PO files, which means the merge probably won't work. Then I'd simply suggest fetching the files from the branch, putting them in the right place in the trunk branch and committing.

Wouldn't this cause problems for languages where "Super" gets
translated? I would have thought it would because the new strings
might not be reviewed by translators.

Small comment on the merge proposal itself - I think it leaves one
reference to "Meta" in unity-dash-intro.page.

Thanks Matthew for catching the remaining meta in unity-dash-intro.

Merging the translations was a pain as I didn't trust sed in this case.
