localization problems in video filters window

Russian localization in avidemux-qt-2.6.4-2.fc19 broken, see screenshot.
Some other parts of interface translated fine, some untranslated, but unreadable filters names unusable.
Comment 1 nucleo 2013-06-03 22:20:01 CEST
So maybe better to disable translations again for now?
Comment 2 Richard 2013-06-03 22:32:29 CEST
Well darn... There's not much I can do about it except to include or not include them. Have you look at the forums? If I get a chance I'll ask on there to see if this is a known issue.
Comment 3 nucleo 2013-06-03 22:35:48 CEST
No, I didn't looked, just installed new build.
Comment 4 nucleo 2013-06-09 00:15:16 CEST
Build avidemux-qt-2.6.4-2.fc19 with broken localization pushed to free-updates-testing repo.
Needed new build with disabled translations.
Comment 5 Richard 2013-06-09 04:32:23 CEST
dangit... Got busy at work. I've asked about the Russian translations specificly on the forums. We'll see what they say. Worst case you can delete the translations manually...

Typically I wouldn't install them as a separate package but in this case maybe it makes sense?
Comment 6 nucleo 2013-06-09 13:42:08 CEST
Translations subpackage can be solution, if someone whats them then they can be installed separately.
Comment 7 Richard 2013-06-12 21:34:34 CEST
Ok, I'm testing the packaging locally first but I have added a new sub-package, avidemux-i18n which is not directly required by any other package (necessary to make it optional) but does require the avidemux and avidemux-qt packages.

Does that approach seem reasonable to you?
Comment 8 nucleo 2013-06-12 21:56:44 CEST
Should be fine because now translations available only for qt gui, but if gtk translations will be added then new i18n sub-package should be modified somehow.
Comment 9 Richard 2013-06-13 14:57:36 CEST
Not that I expected it to fail, but I tested the new packaging method using: 'LC_ALL"ru_RU.utf8" avidemux3-qt4' and saw what you meant about the incomplete translations. 

I'm not too worried about the name as I've really considered dropping the GTK interface as it's non-functional and not being actively worked on but I keep hoping someone will eventually fix it.

Worst case I can package both sets of translations in the one package. It won't hurt anything, just take up a little more space.

The new builds have started hitting the testing repositories so I'm calling this done (as we can get it!).
