Description

Hi, I tried to localize libprint.a, but my patch forces to translate same strings (over 80 strings !) for each drivers. any idea for translating static library?

We could make it so the drivers load the string from a shared catalog by loading it manually (skipping the B_TRANSLATE macros and using BCatalog API directly). Do we want to do that, however? The point of the static library is that it is bundled inside the driver, so it is independant. If the catalog is shared, then this feature (self contained driver) is lost because it needs to be used with the right version of the shared catalog.

Unfortunately the patch does not apply cleanly anymore.
