https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=18901 --- Comment #1 from Julian Maurice <julian.maurice@biblibre.com> --- Created attachment 64846 --> https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/attachment.cgi?id=64846&action=edit Bug 18901: Sysprefs translation: translate only *.pref files (not *.pref*) Text editors can create temporary files in this folder and this can confuse the translator. For instance, vim can create a file named '.opac.pref.swp' which will make the translator dies with the following error message: Can't use string ("b0VIM 8.0") as a HASH ref while "strict refs" in use at LangInstaller.pm line 248. Test plan: 1. echo 'Oops' > .../en/modules/admin/preferences/whatever.pref.whatever 2. cd misc/translator && ./translate update fr-FR 3. Verify that you have the error message mentioned above 4. Apply patch 5. cd misc/translator && ./translate update fr-FR 6. No more errors! -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
