German Output With lualatex

[Jan Ulrich Hasecke]

Hi all,

I don't get german chapternames etc. when I compile my project.

The problem seems to be that lualatex does not know the language ngerman.

I edited the tex-file until I get the desired output.

Here is the diff.

10c10
< \documentclass[letterpaper,10pt,ngerman]{sphinxmanual}
---
> \documentclass[letterpaper,10pt,german]{sphinxmanual}
21c21
< \setmainlanguage{ngerman}
---
> \setmainlanguage{german}
55,57c55,57
< \addto\captionsngerman{\renewcommand{\figurename}{Abb.}}
< \addto\captionsngerman{\renewcommand{\tablename}{Tab.}}
< \addto\captionsngerman{\renewcommand{\literalblockname}{Quellcode}}
---
> \addto\captionsgerman{\renewcommand{\figurename}{Abb.}}
> \addto\captionsgerman{\renewcommand{\tablename}{Tab.}}
> \addto\captionsgerman{\renewcommand{\literalblockname}{Quellcode}}
59,60c59,60

<

---

\addto\captionsgerman{\renewcommand{\literalblockcontinuedname}{Fortsetzung

>
\addto\captionsgerman{\renewcommand{\literalblockcontinuesname}{Fortsetzung
auf der nächsten Seite}}
183c183

As you can see I switched from "ngerman" to "german".

And \literalblockcontinuesname is not set to a german string at all.

I think at least the latter issue is a bug.

Is there something special I have to set in conf.py to get the right output?

Hi,

The "ngerman" came from docutils implementation.
How about updating it from conf.py like following?
```
import docutils.writers.latex2e
docutils.writers.latex2e.Babel.language_codes['de'] = 'german'
```

>And \literalblockcontinuesname is not set to a german string at all.

Simply it's not translated yet. It seems some messages are not
translated to German.
We're always welcome your contributions :-)

Hi,

with lualatex Sphinx uses LaTeX package polyglossia
not LaTeX package babel (however if you override the
'babel' key of latex_elements you can force use of babel
in place of polyglossia; I do this for French)

Turns out polyglossia indeed does not recognize "ngerman"
(which is regrettable in terms of facilitating to LaTeX
users converting babel-using pdflatex sources to polyglossia-
lualatex sources) but handles "german" as babel
does for "ngerman", i.e. by default it does use the
hyphenation patterns for reformed (1996) orthography.

Simplest is to follow @tk0miya advice so that polyglossia
does get the "german" it expects

As per the non-translated strings I asked to join
the transifex German team, so I can push your suggestion
once I have the access rights ...

(or the German Sphinx translators will do it before that)

You can use the 'preamble' key of latex_elements to
insert your translations, without having to post-process
the TeX file. Your renewcommand's will overwrite those
inserted a bit earlier in the preamble from the LaTeX template.

Best,

Jean-François

Hi,

the first string appeared also in the longtable template, hence
had already been translated. The second string was not translated
to German in time for 1.7.0/1.7.1 but I have done it now.

@Takeshi: are transifex translations integrated only at time
of major releases, or will 1.7.2 get this update? (sorry I forgot
the procedure)

Best,
Jean-François

Translations on transifex is synchronized with master branch.
So you should pick up them into 1.7 branch manually.

Thanks,

Hi, I have done it now on 1.7 branch for this particular string
and German language.

Thanks for reminding me of procedure!
