Where to commit

To trunk, at the moment.

creating POTs

Create XPI

1. Way: from CVS

For this, we need a Firefox build and a complete checked-out locale.

Go into the obj-dir or into ~/mozilla/browser/locales. Then simlpy run

make langpack-ku

That’s all. You will find the langpack in /mozilla/dist/install.

2. Way: from another XPI

Original en-US.xpi are found here: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk/

build process

preparation

We need the packages “firefox-dev”, some GTK2-dev and libidl-dev

/l10n/ku must be parrallel to /mozilla, not inside. like:

Firefox2
    l10n
        ku
        en-US
    mozilla
