Re: [libreoffice-l10n] Translations getting reverted in the 25.2 branch

Hi,

In the Danish translation of LO 25.2, it appears that about 120 strings from LO itself and roughly 
800 strings from the help system were reverted. (LO was at 100%, LO Help at about 97%, where the 
number of unfinished strings in 25.2 is now HIGHER than the number of unfinished strings in Master.)

Thanks to Christian Lohmaier for the analysis in a different mail about the possible cause and how 
it can hopefully be avoided in the future. As for now, is there any chance of a technical solution 
that identifies the reverted strings and re-reverts them, or do we need to work through the damage 
for this time by repeating the translations in each language?

Surely, redoing translations is not something any of us wants to do, but if a technical solution is 
not possible, we may have to. The most important thing is avoiding this to happen again.

Best regards,
Lars

Hi,

I can confirm this: for the UI part, we had 25.2 branch fully translated, however now Weblate shows 
298 untranslated strings. No such case occurred in the 24.8 branch.

Could Weblate admins investigate this? This would lead to missing translations in the 25.2 release.

(A side note: interestingly, the 25.2 branches in Weblate are visible only for signed in users - is 
there any reason for that?)

Thanks,
Stanislav
