[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] TPAC localization

[Ben Shum]

Hi Livia,

Hmm, you may have just uncovered a potential bug in the 2.9 release
series.  I was looking at the data file from the downloadable tarball,
in Open-ILS/src/data/locale/* and looking at the cs-CZ.po file, I only
see entries in their for translation for strings in places like
*/src/templates/staff/* which is for the web staff client.  I do not
see any entries for /src/templates/opac/* which would probably be
necessary to have translations in the catalog (TPAC).

Looking back at older tarballs, like 2.7.1, I can see that there used
to be entries in the .po files for /opac/, etc.  So something might
have broken when we added in the webstaff translations in the more
recent releases.  The 2.8.3 tarball looks okay too, so this issue only
affected the latest 2.9 series (which is when I think we added the
webstaff client translation efforts anyways).

This is all of course assuming that the instructions from
http://docs.evergreen-ils.org/2.9/_setting_a_default_language_and_adding_optional_languages.html
is still valid for adding another locale to the Evergreen catalog.

Thanks for bringing this question to the community, we appreciate your
testing Evergreen in other languages and we hope to see a resolution
come forward soon that may help everyone get back on the right path.

Regards,

-- Ben
