ruaok: my purpose is to use the database offline can this work?
2011-07-18 19917, 2011

ruaok
depends on how you intend to use the database.
2011-07-18 19927, 2011
22:06 PM
ruaok
if you're going to point picard at it, it will not work.
2011-07-18 19935, 2011
22:06 PM

if you want to query the DB directly, it will work.

if you could actually tell us what you're trying to do, we might be able to help.
2011-07-18 19947, 2011

but if you tell us fragments of information we can only guess as to what you might be trying to do.

you need to install a search server as well, and we dont have that in VM yet.

but in linux?

[18:25] luks I think that leaving it empty is better than having a questionable "Other" option

nikki thinks the other type is getting more misuse than valid use and can certainly see why luks would think that

*grumble* it would be nice if releasing a new version of picard also meant updating its translations at launchpad... *grumble*

also randomly for no obvious reason

I think some of them are groups and the editors just don't bother selecting group
2011-07-18 19908, 2011
22:48 PM
reosarevok
Well, normally it's hard to know, because of course they don't leave edit notes

I can kind of understand it for the transgender ones: Not “male” because some people consider them female, not “female” because they consider themselves male. (or vice-versa of course, but just for argument’s sake)
2011-07-18 19947, 2011

Still, it’s not linked from the artist help — and one “obvious” doc page doesn’t say.
2011-07-18 19909, 2011

I doubt people are going much out of their way to read the docs
2011-07-18 19925, 2011

and even if they go a bit out, it’s not obvious so I can understand making that mistake
2011-07-18 19900, 2011

the ones I've pointed it out to haven't responded, so I guess they're unlikely to read anything
