http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12097

Summary: Wine 1.0 should not ship out-of-sync resource
                    translations
           Product: Wine
           Version: CVS/GIT
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

As seen on http://pf128.krakow.sdi.tpnet.pl/wine-transl/ we have a lot of
out-of-sync resources.

Sometimes it's menus missing only a separator and some of them are probably
false positives (e.g. Korean dialogs declares a font while English doesn't. But
they probably need to to have Korean characters. However it would be good to
have a confirmation). But often these are missing menu items or stringtable
entries. This can lead to shell folders (like My Documents) not to be created
or empty strings like in

.

I think as Wine 1.0 should be a stable release we shouldn't ship such
resources. We could try e.g. to add an options to wrc to copy missing strings
from English stringtables, while for other resources surround them by "#ifdef
INCLUDE_BROKEN_RESOURCES" that wouldn't be set when compiling Wine but would be
used be used by the statistic scripts to notify the translators about broken
resources. Another solution would be to use something like the po/mo files.
