https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=27236 Bug ID: 27236 Summary: Package PO translation files separately to koha-common Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Packaging Assignee: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org Reporter: dcook@prosentient.com.au QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org CC: mtj@kohaaloha.com I propose that we package PO translation files separately as "koha-i18n". This is a common practice in Debian: https://packages.debian.org/search?searchon=names&keywords=i18n As Bernardo pointed out in Bug 24211, ~350MB of Koha's installed size is just PO files. That's roughly 75% of Koha's installed size. Combined with Bernardo's early ideas from Bug 24211, we could actually package the PO files as compressed files (down from ~350MB to ~50MB). Libraries that need translations could make sure their vendors install koha-i18n (this is another use-case for koha-core vs koha-full), and then they can just decompress the languages required. Technically, this might even make it easier to provide updated translations when the only change in Koha is the translation (and no code/template changes). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
