<PRE>Hello!
Please make it clear, at least for newcomers, how to package translated
man pages in Mageia. Our policies and guidelines aren't clear.
<A HREF="https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Packaging_guidelines#Handling_Locale_Files">https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Packaging_guidelines#Handling_Locale_Files</A>
suggested, before the latest changes, with "If the package includes
translations, add BuildRequires: gettext If you don't, your package
could fail to generate translation files in the buildroot." that this
section is also about man pages. Translated man pages are
_translations_, aren't they?
In the "Packaging localisation policy" it's more clear. But still
expressions like "some cases" aren't clear. I wouldn't say that *all*
man pages are counted as "some [special] case". Aren't I right?
Is it possible to handle multiple man pages in different languages with
some macro? At times it's bit complicated, for example for amule it's
done like this:
%lang(de) %{_mandir}/de/man1/alc.1*
%lang(es) %{_mandir}/es/man1/alc.1*
%lang(hu) %{_mandir}/hu/man1/alc.1*

%lang(it) %{_mandir}/it/man1/amuleweb.1*
%lang(ru) %{_mandir}/ru/man1/amuleweb.1*
PS. The policy suggest to follow numlock.spec and in the file we read in
the 1st like as follows "# !!!!!!!! WARNING THIS HAS TO BE EDITED IN THE
SVN !!!!!!!!!!!" - is this a provocation? The file was untouched for 10
months :)
