# Updating translations
 
2
 
 
3
Translations for the Calendar app happen in [Launchpad Translations][] and
 
4
are automatically committed daily on the trunk branch in the po/ folder.
 
5
 
 
6
They are then built and installed as part of the package build, so that
 
7
developers don't really need to worry about them.
 
8
 
 
9
However, there is one task that needs to be taken care of: exposing new
 
10
translatable messages to translators. So whenever you add new translatable
 
11
messages in the code, make sure to follow these steps:
 
12
 
 
13
 1. Change directory to the po/ folder: `cd po`
 
14
 2. Update the translations template: `qmake && make pot`
 
15
 3. Commit the generated .pot file: `bzr commit -m"Updated translation template"`
 
16
 4. Push the branch and send a merge proposal as usual
 
17
 
 
18
And that's it, once the branch lands Launchpad should take care of all the rest!
