[evolution-patches] Re: evolution string freeze breakage



Harry already made a patch to use existing string instead of the new ones.
It will fix the problem if is approved, or we will revert the original patch.

There has been an unannounced string freeze breakage in the string
frozen evolution gnome-2-10 branch.

It is these added messages:

	#: calendar/gui/print.c:2320
	#, c-format
	msgid "Summary: %s"

	#: calendar/gui/print.c:2328
	#, c-format
	msgid "Location: %s"

The relevant part of the ChangeLog seems to be this one:

	2005-03-16  Li Yuan  <li yuan sun com>

       * gui/print.c: (print_comp_item): Fixes #44579

(http://cvs.gnome.org/viewcvs/evolution/calendar/gui/print.c?r1=1.72&r2=1.72.2.1)


No warning had been given in advance for these additions. GNOME is in
string freeze, which means that prior announcement and approval of
string changes and string additions is needed, as described on
http://developer.gnome.org/dotplan/tasks.html#ApprovingFreezeBreaks.

I suggest that this change should be reverted from the string frozen
branch. If people disagree with that, then I would like to hear some
motivation on why this change is considered important enough to break
the freeze and why it cannot wait until the next development cycle.
