The script at `files/po/update_po.py` carries out the following steps for each gettext domain (which currently only includes `audit_secureblue` but in the future will presumably include others): * Use `xgettext` to update the POT file to reflect changes to the source code. * Use `msginit` to update the English-language PO file (which doesn't require a translator). * Use `msgmerge` to update other locales' PO files based on the updated POT file; new or modified strings will then need to be filled in by the translators. The list of domains and their corresponding source files is stored in `files/po/po-source-files.json`. These steps were previously done individually, and it's easier to just run this script, which also keeps track of which source files are associated to which gettext domain. PR authors will still need to run this script manually unless we figure out a way to automate it. Also update PO/POT files using this script. Signed-off-by: Daniel Hast <[email protected]>
