Priority: 3 Submitted By: Jakub Hrozek (jhrozek-guest) Assigned to: Nobody (None) Summary: RFE: provide an option that only recreates translated files from po and original Category: None Group: None Initial Comment: Currently, the only way to use po4a to only recreate translated files from originals and .po files is calling po4a-translate. However, this has the downside of not using the config file. Since po4a already contains --no-translations option, is it possible to also include something like --only-translations? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: 03/04/2017 23:42 Message: Hello, I just added a --no-update flag to po4a to prevent it from updating the po and pot files. Thus closing. Thanks for reporting, and sorry for the delay.

But if you can convince me that it is really needed, I will be glad to reconsider my position ;) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://alioth.debian.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=410622&aid=31...
