A new pot creation date is given to these pot files. For now you can skip this step. "make po-LANG" will also update pot files if necessary.

We should change the build process to not update po files when building the manual with "make html-LANG". But should we also remove the "make po-LANG" command and update po files manually with "make po/LANG/path/to/pofile.po"? > After <sect...info>, do we must remove this pot creation date? Hmm, we could add a script to identify those files and to apply "svn revert". Should be easy, but would be really ugly... Merging the po files can improve our situation: IMHO we should merge all po files of a directory to a single po file. Now we have 559 po files in 34 directories. I would like to add a few new directories to get rid of of these silly filename prefixes (e.g. src/menus/edit/* instead of src/menus/edit-*), but we will end up with not more that 50 po files. This will reduce the number of unintentionally changed files and will make it easier to check and revert files manually. Ulf
