The Cassini release.

César-François Cassini de Thury was born 310 years ago, and then made
a bunch of nice-looking topographic maps of France and around.

General:

• Try to not fail when writing UTF po files with old Perl versions
  (GitHub's #495) [Ineiev].

• Improve various error messages to help users debugging encoding issues.

  The thing is that po4a v0.70 and later is much more picky about encodings.
  Before, it was relying on the default Perl behavior to do "the right thing",
  happily parsing latin-1 or UTF-8 files and converting to the Perl internal
  string representation. The drawback was that this setup forced po4a to
  convert back and forth internally after reading and before writing.

  The v0.70 code uses PerlIO to handle all encoding issues automatically,
  removing all manual conversions in the code of po4a. The price for this is
  that users must specify the used encoding more precisely (I sometimes
  suspect that previously, user settings were only used as an hint of the
  actual conversion, not a ground truth). So the users are now more exposed
  to the mess of Perl encodings, where utf8 and UTF-8 are actually different.
  https://perldoc.perl.org/Encode#UTF-8-vs.-utf8-vs.-UTF8

  This new behavior broke the build of several Debian packages. In some cases,
  it was just the result of po4a being less forgiving about user configuration
  (eg, Debian's #1072643). In Debian's #1073038, it was that po4a made a
  difference between utf8 and UTF-8 in the encoding specification embedded in
  a POD file. There is no such difference in this context, only in Perl
  internals: utf8 is lax parsing while UTF-8 is picky parsing, but both lead
  to the same result if the file is correctly encoded following the UTF-8
  standard. po4a now takes UTF-8 (picky parsing) in both cases for POD files.

The PerlIO cleanup release.

Download it now: po4a-0.70.tar.gz

Major cleanup:

• Greatly simplify the code by using PerlIO instead of messing up with encodings manually.
• This is a very intrusive change, and even if all tests of our comprehensive suite pass, I still expect issues with this on some corner cases, such as projects not using UTF-8 but a mixture of encodings. Please report any issue, and accept my apologies.
• This greatly simplifies the code, enabling future maintenance.

Asciidoc:

• Correctly handle lines that start with a dot in a paragraph. Thanks Jean-Noël Avila for the pull request.
• Labels of cross-references were not translatable (GitHub's #400). Thanks Jean-Noël Avila for the pull request.
• Fix a bug in the handling of the 'id' attribute (GitHub's #411). Thanks Jean-Noël Avila for the pull request.
• Process multi-line attributes in legacy and asciidoctor mode (GitHub's #414). Thanks Jean-Noël Avila for the pull request.
• Process transparent index entries in their own segments (GitHub's #424). Thanks Jean-Noël Avila for the pull request.
• Keep original formating (GitHub's #416). Thanks suddenfall for the feedback, and Jean-Noël Avila for the fixes.
• Fix a bug in handling of bold text starting a list item (GitHub's #447). Thanks Jean-Noël Avila for the pull request.
• Fix handling of linebreaks in lists (GitHub's #444). Thanks Jean-Noël Avila for the pull request.

Tex:

• Allow verbatim environment declaration without trailing space (GitHub's #407). Thanks Mayeul Cantan for the report & the fix.
• Informative error message when file not found for \input, indicating how to skip this include (GitHub's #421) [mquinson].

Texinfo:

• Translate partial menu node names (GitHub's #437) [Apteryks].

Markdown:

• Treat link reference definitions as no-wrap (GitHub's #422) [gemmaro].
• Don't emit a warning when provided an empty tag list in YFM (GitHub's #426) [Martin].

YAML:

• Verbosely fail on inline lists and dictionaries, as YAML::Tiny does not handle them as lists or dicts anyway. Do quote list-looking strings (GitHub's #439) [Martin & gemmaro].

General:

• Don't fail on empty po files, e.g. adoc files containing only includes. Thanks Suddenfall for the report & fix (GitHub's #408).
• Fix an encoding error in one file which resulted in build errors with new gettext versions (GitHub's #428). Thanks to Jan Palus for the issue report and the fix.
• Use the semantic of Perl v5.12 (released in 2012) instead of the previously requested one (v5.6 release in 2000). This is to request the unicode_strings feature, making the utf strings more predictable.
• Accept BOM markers at the beginning of files (GitHub's #443 and #333) [Mt]
• Specify in the README.md and in all source files that the license is GPL2+, not GPL2-only (GitHub's #434) [Mt]

Documentation:

• Improve the description of the internals, in the hope that potential contributors will become proficient quickly and help us. [Mt]
• Revamp the po4a(7) document now that the po4a-* scripts are deprecated. Explain why they are, and don't mention them in the described workflow. (Debian's #1036824). [Mt]

po4a main script (the deprecated po4a-* scripts are still buggy):

• Deal properly with CRLF files coming from windows (GitHub's #409).
• Allow to escape spaces in file names, or to quote them (GitHub's #412).
• Do not pass empty PO files to msgmerge, as it stumbles on such things when the POT file has UTF chars in the msgids. (GitHub's #442) [Mt]

po4a-translate:

• Remove the wrap-po option that was not used internally.

po4a-updatepo:

• Do not pass empty PO files to msgmerge, as it stumbles on such things when the POT file has UTF chars in the msgids. (Debian's #1022216) [Mt]

Build scripts:

• Use xmlcatalog(1) to find DocBook XSL file (GitHub's #431).

Happy New Year release

Released on January 1.

Markdown:

• Parts of a fenced divs are now translated separately (GitHub's #381)

YAML and Yaml Front Matter:

• Use the implementation of YFM to parse YAML files too.
  • This reduces the code dupplication, and brings the nice features over:
    Numbers and arrays are not quoted anymore in Yaml files, as it should be.
  • This adds the yfm_paths option to Markdown and Asciidoc YFM,
    fixing GitHub's #392 along the way.
  • Please note that '-o keys' is now case-sensitive in Yaml documents.
• Do not translate nor quote booleans, so that they are not treated as string.
  Thanks Gissmo for GitHub's PR #393, even if I had to rework it quite a bit.

XML:

• Correctly handle placeholders of empty elements (GitHub's #389)
• Translate attributes within attribute-folded inline and placeholder (GH #391)
  alt attribute of can be properly handled with: -o 'attributes=<image>alt' -o 'inline=<image>' -o foldattributes
• Thanks k-yaegashi for the pull request fixing both issues

Project organization:

• Do not leak the generation date in our manpages (GitHub's #387)

The High Hopes release

This release dedication is here to remind you that Hope is always important.
Plus, the song of that name by Pink Floyd also deserves a dedication.

Project organization:

• Add a deprecation warning to po4a-translate and po4a-updatepo stating that po4a is the prefered interface.
• Rewrite the po4a-gettextize documentation (Debian's #1016695) [Mt].
• Rewrite the intro of po4a doc, and add a Quick start tutorial [Mt].

gettextization:

• Rework completely the deduplication of msgids introduced in v0.67.

  • Instead of adding spaces and require the users to merge them manually after an extremely painful analysis of the produced file, automatically merge the msgstr together.

  • The result will look something like:

    #, fuzzy
    msgid "hello"
    msgstr ""
    "#-#-#-#-# file reference 1 (type: Title #) #-#-#-#-#\n"
    "HELLO\n"
    "#-#-#-#-# file reference 2 (type: Title ##) #-#-#-#-#\n"
    "SUBTITLE\n"

  • Closes Debian's #1017742, that was asking for help in the review [Mt].

Markdown:

• Allow lists to start the line with no leading spaces before the '-' sign (Github's #378). This uncovers a bug in our test suite that was enforcing the buggy behavior :( [Mt]
• Properly deal with fenced div blocks (Github's #381) [Mt]

Man:

• Bold text should never be wrapped as groff seems to reset the font on new line (Debian's #1016753) [Mt].
• Properly deal with comments around macro definitions [Mt] (Debian's #1017837).
