Uploading to Pootle replaced the wrong file

Hi,

I was trying out offline translation of "LibreOffice master – Help" and
uploaded translated auxiliary.po file in the root folder of the project.
However, auxiliary.po file in Pootle stayed the same as it was, and content
of shared.po file was replaced instead.
Uploading the original shared.po file does not restore it. Now there are
two files in the root folder with the same content but different file names.

Could someone please restore the shared.po file in the root folder of
"LibreOffice
master – Help" for Lithuanian and possibly explain what went wrong while I
was trying to upload?

Thanks!

Anyone able to help me with restoring the shared.po file?

I realized the reason why the file got corrupted could have been me not
noticing that OmegaT replaced headers of other files with the header of
shared.po file from TM - thus the contents of other uploaded files went to
shared.po instead.

But still I don't understand why I can't upload the correct shared.po file.
I tried uploading even the original untranslated file with no luck.

Can anyone restore shared.po for me?

Regards,
Modestas

Hi Modestas, *,

Hi,

Sorry, when I had a look I though this was resolved already, but you
sent another mail yesterday claiming the problem persists..

To me, the shared.po and auxilliary.po are not the same at all.

So I'd need some more details on what is broken.

https://translations.documentfoundation.org/lt/libo_help/auxiliary.po 288
https://translations.documentfoundation.org/lt/libo_help/shared.po 1032 words
and also with different strings, so looked pretty different to me and
I thought you solved it in the meantime.

So you should have written: Contents of auxillary.po was *ADDED* to
shared.po, and not replace it.

→ so no real problem for the product, just added noise in the po, will
be fixed with template update/creation of separate 52 projects later
today.
