Description     : web-based translation tool with tight Git integration

Weblate is a web-based translation tool with tight Git integration.
It features simple and clean user interface, propagation of
translations across subprojects, quality checks and automatic linking
to source files.

Weblate is similar to Pootle, Transifex, or Launchpad translation.

It seems, that all dependencies are fulfilled in Jessie, but not
Wheezy, so backporting would require backports of at least
python-whoosh and translate-toolkit.

Thanks Michal, I hope I did not miss other dependencies.

Hello Kurashiki, are you working on python-social-auth in the
jessie timeframe?

hi,

Maybe.

It's waiting for being sponsord, please see:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=743592

My ITP is for using weblate on debian, so if you plan to package weblate itself,
I think it had better that DD maintain it with its dependencies :-)

Any help appreciated.

Hello:


Any news on this RTP?

I would like to be able to install weblate in Debian Jessie.

The URL for cloning the weblate Git repo on collab-maint is actually
ssh://git.debian.org/git/collab-maint/weblate.git, not
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=collab-maint/weblate.git I believe.

Cheers!

Hi Martin!

I just realize right now that we've been in touch before concerning this
package… I guess none of us was interested enough in migrating the
existing packaging to Salsa.

At Tails we are still interested in seeing this packaged, but we have
not tried it ourselves (yet?).

However, we've made some progress on listing dependencies, see
https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/10038

I still have a local copy of the packaging files dating back to 2015
which I could upload to Salsa.

Is anybody interested in this?

Cheers!
Ulrike

We (torproject.org) are.

Please do put your stuff on salsa, or alternatively someone could
restore from the alioth backups, but I couldn't find it here:

https://alioth-archive.debian.org/git/repolist

Help! :)

(Arguably, the packaging would now be almost a decade old, but there's
some stuff like the description and copyright that we could possibly
reuse. Alternatively, maybe we could just do a py2dsp and be done with
it.)

(I do understand we're still missing some deps though, but it would be
nice to keep working on this...)

Hi Antoine,

Hey, this message of mine was only 3.5 years old and the last commit
dates back only 7.5 years! :) I have no memory of the state of the
package from back then though, I let you explore.

https://salsa.debian.org/ulrike/weblate I added you as a maintainer there.

hugs,
Ulrike

shouldn't we move this to the new "collab-maint" (the debian group on salsa)?

Hey,

Feel free to move it anywhere you want. I just did the first and easiest
thing that came to my mind.

Take care,
Ulrike
