Hi, The general guidelines currently state that translations should be found using %find_lang; this macro provides a listing of all *.mo files but not their containing directories. Specifying just the files makes sense when they are in the global location (/usr/share/locale), but not so much when they are in, e.g., the Python site-packages directories. For example, python3-humanize currently lists: /usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/humanize ... /usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/humanize/locale/fr_FR/LC_MESSAGES/humanize.mo /usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/humanize/locale/ko_KR/LC_MESSAGES/humanize.mo /usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/humanize/locale/ru_RU/LC_MESSAGES/humanize.mo but *not* the humanize/locale or humanize/locale/* directories. So when you uninstall python3-humanize, you are left with the /usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/humanize/locale/*/LC_MESSAGES/ directories. I see three ways forward: 1. Teach %find_lang to add directories if it's not in /usr/share/locale 2. Tell packagers to explicitly include the directories is not in /usr/share/locale 3. Stop recommending %find_lang if it serves no other purpose than to just list files (I *think* multiple packages owning directories is no longer an issue?) I'd lean towards 1 as I think 2 is just unnecessary extra work and the condition in 3 is not probably true. -- Elliott _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
