[bug#35394] [PATCH 4/4 v4] Grub i18n

["Miguel Ángel Arruga Vivas" <rosen644835@gmail.com>]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 908 bytes --]

Sorry, please disregard the last patch, it was a non-working version.  I
tested this one with Grub and the boot-parameters test (for the label
modification).

I leave the open points for reference.

Happy hacking!
Miguel

Subject: [PATCH] system: nls for boot labels.

* gnu/bootloader/extlinux.scm (extlinux-configuration-file): Add
keyword locale.
[translate-label]: New function that formats the label after
translation.
[menu-entry->gexp]: Use translate-label.
[init-gettext]: Init gettext with the language provided through the
configuration.
[builder]: Use init-gettext, define G_ and translate strings.
* gnu/bootloader/grub.scm (eye-candy): Translate string.
(grub-configuration-file)[translate-label]: New function.
[menu-entry->gexp]: Use translate-label.
[init-gettext]: New g-exp variable.
[locale-config]: Translate string.
[builder]: Use init-gettext, define G_ and translate strings.
* gnu/system.scm (kernel->boot-label): Modify return type, and
document it, to allow correct translation of the labels.
* po/guix/POTFILES.in: Add gnu/bootloader/grub.scm.
* tests/boot-parameters.scm (%default-label): Update to the new
format.
(%old-label): Renamed from old %default-label.
(read old format): New test case.
