Welcome to the magic kde-l10n-common branch.
== Branch ==
When applying changes to the packaging, you must only do this via the packaging
branch, otherwise the changes will be dropoped with the next upload based on
the branch!
https://code.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-packagers/kubuntu-packaging/kde-l10n-common
== Intro ==
This branch is designed to be the one and only common base for KDE l10n packages
concerning packaging in Kubuntu.
From inspecting this debian/ directory you will see that crucial strings
use weird keywords that can easily be substituted (such as
fi).
Those will be manipulated by a magical script (debian/build-l10n.sh) to form
a sensible package for each available language.
== Requirements ==
* Packaging skillz
* Speedy internet access
* Access to the Ubuntu account on KTown (poke a random ninja for that)
* bzr
* bzr-buildpackage
* subversion
== General Workflow ==
* Change
* Commit
* Push
* Build
Note: build-l10n.sh will NOT under any circumstances let you build the packages
if you did not push all commits, nor will it include uncommited changes in the
build!
== Updates ==
When applying upstream updates remember to change the tag date/revision in
debian/rules, otherwise outdated desktop files will be merged into the package.
== Internals ==
* The magical script fetches all tarballs of the release as detected from
debian/changelog
* Then branches the common branch for each downloaded language and replaces
the place holders with actual values
* Builds a package using bzr-buildpackage
Since this branch depends on source-format 3 there will not be a conversion from
bz2 to gz, which speeds up everything quite a bit.
Once all packages are built and you are happy, you just need to dput them.
