[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #63404] Translation files (*.ts) for Octave 8.1 Release

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #63404 (project octave):

@Torsten: They have not been updated.  We definitely need to do that before we
contact translators.  Yesterday at the Octave developer's meeting we also
talked about making the release procedures reproducible.  Part of this is
checking any scripts we use into Mercurial.  Second part is documenting what
we do so any developer could step in and perform the task.

I think for Octave 8 that would be a good goal.  I seem to have a script for
generating language files and two archive files (octave-qt.tar.gz,
qsci.tar.gz) that I got from you back in February 2020.  Have there been any
updates?  Actually, there have to have been because the script opens with


QT_LANG_DIR=/usr/share/qt4/translations


and we no longer support Qt4.

Easiest thing would be for you to generate the .ts files again for the 8.1
release, and record the process and any inputs you use.

If you are very much too busy this year then I can try to do it, but I will
need to ask you questions along the way.
