new compare-locales running on l10n.mozilla.org

[Axel Hecht]

Hi all,

I got a dramatically more strict version of compare-locales up running
on l10n.mozilla.org, find your latest builds (for fx3) on
http://l10n.mozilla.org/dashboard/

I have already sent some warnings out, but not to all.

To be clear, this does find new bugs, and I ran over all our
localizations in cvs. It only found valid bugs before I actually put it
live.

For example see
http://l10n.mozilla.org/buildbot/compare/linux-langpack/4111,
http://l10n.mozilla.org/buildbot/compare/linux-langpack/4117, or
http://l10n.mozilla.org/buildbot/compare/linux-langpack/4119,

The 4117 shows one naughty little problem that's just not easy to get
totally right, there are DTD markup errors. It does recover much better
than previously, where everything beneath the error was just reported
missing, but it's still not easy to find in all cases.

Note that I'm checking for included DTDs, too, now. So if you get an
error about a missing entity in netError.dtd, you likely miss out on the
inclusion of either brand.dtd or netErrorApp.dtd.

If you build is reporting that it's missing, but it's there, please
follow up here, then I'll try to figure out if my regexps were to strict.

I'll wait for a bit of feedback still before uploading the command line
version onto pypi, but that should happen soon, too. This version is on
the hg rep, though.

HTH

Axel, is this FF-only or is this also available for other projects
like Sunbird, Thunderbird or SeaMonkey?

If not, what needs to happen to make this available for us as well?
Obviously we would appreciate it, if tools that improve localization
quality would available for our products as well.

Basically, I'm deploying it in not-production. I tried for quite some
time to get this stuff reviewed so that we can get it used in production
builds, but that didn't happen. No idea how to fix that.

I don't even have a reasonable staging environment for this. Like, I do
run this locally when hacking on it, but the PC it does run on is *way*
old, and not capable of handling a similar load. So I usually end up
testing just one or two incubator locales, and then bustage fix on the
live server.

So, the code is there, but in order to extend the scope, someone needs
to step up and collaborate on this. As long as I have to hack on it
alone, I'm a too needy customer of my code myself to take others.

It seems that this version is useful and stable enough, so I packed it
up and uploaded in to pypi, http://pypi.python.org/pypi/compare-locales.

See http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/EasyInstall on easy_install.

Try a

easy_install -U compare-locales

instead? That updates an existing install.

And, yahoo mail has broken quoting :-(.

Axel, who wonders if that the yahoo webmail bug or if there's more than one.

Duh on me, any() is new python 2.5. It's so damn easy to forget about
these things. Fixed and checked with python 2.3 - 2.5, there's a new
version (0.4.1) on pypi now.

[Ankitkumar Patel]

Perfect!

It's working now!

Thanks Axel for fixing it up so quickly!
