Bug Description
Binary package hint: software-center
Currently there is no .pot file for the help file, so it cannot be localized.
To fix this, the software-center Makefile needs to do something like this:
xml2po -k software-center.xml legal.xml > software-center.pot
Then once it has been translated, to convert a .po translation into the equivalent .xml file:
xml2po -p LANGUAGE-CODE.po software-center.xml > ../LANGUAGE-
xml2po -p LANGUAGE-CODE.po legal.xml > ../LANGUAGE-
To automate this further, Launchpad is able to commit automatically to a translations branch, which could be merged to and from the mainline branch.
[Thanks to Danilo Šegan for demonstrating this process.]
