[Pkg-gnupg-maint] Bug#770726: updating translations from non-UTF-8 to UTF-8

[Daniel Kahn Gillmor]

Hi GnuPG folks--

We just got some Spanish translations for GnuPG 1.4.x and 2.0.x reported
to the Debian Project by Manuel "Venturi" Porras Peralta.

They're here:

 https://bugs.debian.org/770726
 https://bugs.debian.org/770727

They convert po/es.po from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8, and they also make a
number of changes to the .po file (apparently for consistency and for
up-to-dateness, though i'm not a Spanish-speaker so i can't vouch for
them).

I don't see a good way to send a git changeset via e-mail where the file
is in a different encoding before and after the change, unfortunately.

I think the right way to apply them in git is to convert po/es.po to
UTF-8 in one commit and then to drop the new file in place, something
like this for 1.4.x:

 git checkout STABLE-BRANCH-1-4
 iconf -f iso-8859-1 -t utf-8 < po/es.po | sed s/ISO-8859-1/UTF-8/ > po/es.po.utf8
 mv po/es.po.utf8 po/es.po
 git add po/es.po
 git commit -m 'Converted po/es.po to UTF-8'
 wget -O po/es.po 'https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=5;filename=es.po;att=3;bug=770726'
 git add po/es.po
 git commit --author 'Manuel "Venturi" Porras Peralta <venturi at openmailbox.org>'


and for 2.0.x:

 git checkout STABLE-BRANCH-2-0
 iconf -f iso-8859-1 -t utf-8 < po/es.po | sed s/ISO-8859-1/UTF-8/ > po/es.po.utf8
 mv po/es.po.utf8 po/es.po
 git add po/es.po
 git commit -m 'Converted po/es.po to UTF-8'
 wget -O po/es.po 'https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=5;filename=es.po;att=3;bug=770727'
 git add po/es.po
 git commit --author 'Manuel "Venturi" Porras Peralta <venturi at openmailbox.org>'


Please let me know if these are applied upstream!

Regards,

        --dkg
