Cool, thank you!

If you have a Debian GNU/Linux at hand and are interested in help with
compiling you can ask me questions by mail or in #gpg4win on freenode IRC.

The INSTALL instructions should work and I would be interested where you
failed to improve the instructions.

To be honest I don't keep proper track on dependencies and e.g. rely on new
GPGME features as soon as they are added :-/ Sorry. The NEED_GPGME_VERSION
part in your patch is also correct. ;-)


But test the new translation yo do not need to recompile GpgOL.

Just run msgfmt on the po file and copy the resulting gpgol.mo to
<gpg4win_dir>\?hare\locale\nl\LC_MESSAGES

GpgOL should pick it up automatically.

Basically what you prefer. Patches done with git format-patch are good, but If
you give me a ping saying that you've updated your github clone I can also
fetch the patch.

Again thanks!
Can I also interest you in translating GpgEX and the Gpg4win Installer? :-P

First of all, I need to be honest here: I use Debian for WSL (which works surprisingly well, but might have unforeseen consequences) and I don't like 'magic' scripts that do all kind of things in my build environment that I don't know about.
So I kindly ignored the instructions in the INSTALL file and did what I thought was the correct thing to do ;-). Based on one of the compilation errors I got, I found out that at least I had to update GPGME on my system and I decided to update the configure.ac right away to help other stubborn people out there as well :-P.

Solving my compilation problems is probably not the right thing to discuss on this mailing list, so I will use one of the options you gave when needed.

This is nice and works perfectly. I will probably tweak some translations based on what I see on the screen now, and let you know if I made any changes.

Cool!

Sure, I will put some effort in it the coming weeks and let you know when it is finished.

Erwin
