Fix for incomplete French translation

February 21, 2023 — BarryK

Caramel and other testing easy 4.99 have reported the French translation to be less than before:

The problem with apps not being translated is due to .mo files being in /usr/share/locale.in, whereas they should be in /usr/share/locale

The scripts in woofQ that build easy are supposed to move all .mo files for inbuilt packages from /usr/share/locale.in to /usr/share/locale. In my eagerness to bring out 4.99, I missed some of the code required to do this. Now fixed, see commit:

Another problem reported is not as many entries in the menu translated, compared with before. I will look at that tonight.
