I'm a annoyed by the 'msgid skipped' warnings for two reasons: 1) they don't give me any line information so I have no way of checking the source Sgml file to verify whether po4a did the right thing or not. This makes them completely useless. 2) I can understand po4a-updatepo issuing this warning but should po4a-translate really issue this warning too? I have fixed issue 1 by including the reference in the warning. An alternative would be to issue this warning only once and to tell the user to set the 'include-all' option if he wants to get all the msgids. I'm dithering on issue 2. Initially I thought po4a-translate had no reason to issue this warning since it's not generating a po file. But then if the po file contains 'translations' for these msgids but po4a-translate skips them anyway you'd probably want to know. Maybe the solution to issue 2 is to be able to set 'include-all=no' to indicate that you know some msgids are being skipped and you don't want to see the warning. Then maybe this means the right solution to issue 1 is really to only issue the warning once and point the user to the 'include-all' option. Any thoughts on this? -- Francois Gouget fgouget(a)codeweavers.com
