Description Pierre Ducroquet 2018-03-05 21:31:27 UTC

Hi

The translations for the Qt5 user interface is split from the Qt5 code in a qt5translations submodule, for instance
http://download.qt.io/official_releases/qt/5.9/5.9.3/submodules/qttranslations-opensource-src-5.9.3.tar.xz

It is a simple package, depending on the linguist host tools (already packages).
The only trick would be to be able to choose the required languages from the configuration menu. It is of great importance for people building embedded Qt applications targeting non-english users.

I am willing to work on this package if you can not work on it (I'm not 100% familiar with buildroot packaging rules, even less with a complex multi-version package like Qt5, so I can not guarantee the quality of my work there).

Regards

 Pierre

Hi Yann

I will do so, I'm just testing with my application. Adding every translations is ok for a first step I guess ?

Pierre,

> Adding every translations is ok for a first step I guess ?

Yes, I'm fine with that. But we should discuss this on
the mailing list; it's easier to do reviews by mail.

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
