missing strings in 'messages.pot'

[jagd]

on my system, the file messages.pot, which was generated from update_pot_file.pl, missed many texts.
It seems all the strings from the Perl menu are gone.

Now this file on the trunk is also incomplete :(

[jagd]

sorry, forgot to paste this:

$ perl -MWx -e"printf(qq(Wx Version=($Wx::VERSION) %s unicode=(%s)\n), Wx::wxVERSION_STRING(), Wx::wxUNICODE())"

==>

Wx Version=(::VERSION) wxWidgets 2.8.11 unicode=(1)

on Fedora 14

Added a test in r13767 that checks certain things in the messages.pot file to reduce the risk for this coming back.

Apparently using 0.17 on Ubuntu 10.4 works well but using
xgettext 0.18.1 on Ununtu 10.10 causes the issue.

In r13858 I restricted the usage to 0.17, hopefully this will help us avoid the problem.

On the current svn server (running Ubuntu 8.04) we also have xgettext 0.17 and it seems to
work correctly.

The same (or a very similar) error has returned on Padre trunk.
Now it happens also with xgettext 0.17.

Output of the test suite:

t/16_messages.t ............ 1/15 
#   Failed test 'messages.pot has entry 'msgid "&Full Screen"''
#   at t/16_messages.t line 41.

t/16_messages.t ............ Dubious, test returned 6 (wstat 1536, 0x600)
Failed 6/15 subtests 

The tests fail both with the messages.pot from SVN and a locally created one (with xgettext 0.17).

For example, "&Full Screen" vanishes in r15875. This could mean some change before that has triggered the problem?

r15872 changes "&Full Screen" to "Full Sc&reen".

So xgettext is not the problem here.

I will just fix the test cases.

fixed in r15914
