My gettext skills are very sub-par, I know just what I've read in the last two weeks. It looks like there are the following differences between what's in the SVN and what my copy of lconvert generates:

1) "msgctxt" is replaced by the "#. ts-context" construct (and is on a "wrong" place)
2) "#, fuzzy" gets added
3) "#, qt-format" strings are removed
4) file names are different and are printed strictly on a one-per-line basis
5) QML files are not processed

I have added a Python script to the conversion process which fixes the first two issues. I hope that 3) and 4) are harmless. Point 5) sucks, but I can do without that funcitonality for now.

I don't have any say in this, and I assume that folks in charge of that machine have better things than upgrading so that Trojita's special setup can work well -- and I fully agree with their evaluation; I'm the one being different, so I have to keep the pieces.

I can easily run the extraction on my own, using lconvert which is recent enough. Would you guys get very upset if the Messages.sh changed to just call wget http://... ?

Cheers,
Jan
