Death to the not-from-Nokia warning in Application Manager
There's still the popup on installing -any- application that it wasn't built by Nokia, which is understandable, but pointless.
My suggestion is remove the entire warning. Everyone knows Leste isn't by Nokia at all.
Step one is identify where this string is used. And we'll have to update all the translations. ;)
Dunno, I don't think the warning is useful. Leste is community-managed distribution; it is quite tricky to install, and everyone already knows what they are doing...
I would like to keep the warning when a package comes from untrusted repository. For sure we should fix it so leste repo to not result in a warning
Strings for HAM are in /usr/share/locale/en_US/LC_MESSAGES/hildon-application-manager.mo, which is provided by hildon-application-manager-l10n-enus.
Using GNU's msgunfmt and msgfmt on that, you can edit as needed. The original files are little endian (I don't know if that matters too much), so when recompiling, it may be wise to use msgfmt --endianness little <.po file> -o <.mo file>. Result:
Maybe we need to talk about any licensing issues around this, then assign someone to update strings as needed. I could volunteer for this task. We may also need to decide how we distribute the updated strings.
Please try to update the strings. We'll eventually want to have all packages be generated from git, as opposed to importing some packages. Kinda related but not quite - https://github.com/maemo-leste/bugtracker/issues/138
I have created a generic translations ticket here: https://github.com/maemo-leste/bugtracker/issues/460
This can now be done in Weblate. Anyone willing to try?

I replaced the Nokia string with Maemo Leste in a few languages. Do I need to manually trigger a rebuild?
Thank you for doing this, I need to learn a bit more about weblate. Where can we see your changes?
I see there is some history here: https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/maemo-leste/hildon-application-manager-l10n/#history
The way I understand this should work is that weblate should be able to make a pull request for the changes to this repository: https://github.com/maemo-leste-translations/hildon-application-manager-l10n/
Ok, I think I managed to figure out weblate. I'm building a new version of the above repository now, tagged as version 7.4.0, for -devel. Let's see how that works, then we can start doing all the other translation repos!
