make check for synce-trayicon fails

[Iain Buchanan]

Hi,

when I run make check for synce-trayicon it fails with this error:

...
INTLTOOL_EXTRACT=/usr/bin/intltool-extract srcdir=. /usr/bin/intltool-update --gettext-package synce-trayicon --pot
rm -f missing notexist
srcdir=. /usr/bin/intltool-update -m
The following files contain translations and are currently not in use. Please
consider adding these to the POTFILES.in file, located in the po/ directory.

data/synce-trayicon-autostart.desktop.in
data/synce-trayicon-autostart.desktop.in.in
data/synce-trayicon.desktop.in
data/synce-trayicon.desktop.in.in
data/synce-trayicon.schemas.in
src/device-info.c
src/device.c
src/main.c
src/synce_app_man.c

If some of these files are left out on purpose then please add them to
POTFILES.skip instead of POTFILES.in. A file 'missing' containing this list
of left out files has been written in the current directory.
if [ -r missing -o -r notexist ]; then \
exit 1; \
fi
make[1]: *** [check] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/app-pda/synce-trayicon-0.15/work/synce-trayicon-0.15/po'
make: *** [check-recursive] Error 1


I don't know much about intltool, but I could either:
1. disable "make check" for this package in Gentoo
2. do something with intltool to ignore these files

Is the make check target worthwhile?

thanks :)

Hi,
...

I'd be gobsmacked if it did work, and yes the translations are
completely out of date.

I'll just leave the tests as disabled then :)
