Mailing List Archive: [PATCH 00/07] man-i18n patches

Hello / Guten tag,

Rio-san (rfujita at redhat.com) previously told about his idea of
documentation i18n / l10n for rsyslog. I'm one of his colleagues and
originally told him about related topics.

A series of patches I'll post right after this mail are to implement
this i18n / l10n workflow for man pages into normal build process.

These patches enable to

* generate original English man pages from DocBook XML files
* generate translated non-English man pages from translated DocBook
XML files, which can be generated from PO files (PO is much suitable
format for translation maintainace than XML, I guess)
* create POT (PO template)

And this automated man-pages-generation process is only performed when
the configure option "--enable-regenerate-man" is specified. So, side
effects of these patches should be kept to a minimum, I think.

Hi Satoru-san,

Your contribution is greatly appreciated. But I am currently on summer
vacation end will return end of month. Then I'll have a look at the
patch :)

Thanks,
Rainer
