I have a problem setting the procedure correctly - i.e. I get "no such
file and directory" returned from compare_locales.

Context: ubuntu system with HG, easy-install and compare_locales in
place and working, I have the following subdirectories at the latest
status:

comm-1.9.2 - cloned from http://hg.mozilla.org/releases/comm-1.9.2/
mozilla-1.9.2 . cloned from http://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-1.9.2/
l10n - cloned from http://hg.mozilla.org/l10n-central,
en-GB and SL trees

What I can not figure out, is how to adjust the following to my
situation:

<i>To check mail, suite, calendar that lives on comm-central, or other
comm-<version>, you need to create a symbolic link ....
<Res>
$ ln -s ../mozilla-central ./comm-central/mozilla
$ compare-locales ./comm-central/mail/locales/l10n.ini ./l10n/ zh-TW #
NOW IT WORKS</i>
</res>
How should the ln command look like in my case? I could of course
simply copy the conflicting toolkit part over to comm-central, but
then
a) there must be some reason to keep it in one and the same place (I
second it) and
b) I do not want to fudge.

btw, the file l10n.ini in comm-central still mentions 1.9.1 (could it
be, nobody before me has tried to use this!?)

compare-locales doesn't resolve symbolic links.

rm comm-central/mozilla
hg clone ../mozilla-central ./comm-central/mozilla

should get you set.

Hi TiA,

Actually I wrote that part of the wiki :P

Symbolic links works on my machine, you might want to check
comm-central/mozilla really points to the correct directory.
Use absolute path if necessary, e.g.
ln -s /home/tia/moz-repo/mozilla-central /home/tia/moz-repo/comm-central/mozilla

Alternatively you could clone/move the mozilla-central repo to the
place as Axel suggests.
