| \title{Package the Current Translations in the \R Sources} |
| \description{ |
| A utility for R Core members to prepare a package of updated translations. |
| } |
| \usage{ |
| make_translations_pkg(srcdir, outDir = ".", append = "-1") |
| } |
| \arguments{ |
| \item{srcdir}{The \R source directory.} |
| \item{outDir}{The directory into which to place the prepared package.} |
| \item{append}{The suffix for the package version number, |
| e.g.\sspace{}\code{3.0.0-1} will be the default in \R 3.0.0.} |
| } |
| \details{ |
| This extracts the translations in a current \R source distribution and |
| packages them as a source package called \pkg{translations} which can |
| be distributed on CRAN and installed by |
| \code{\link{update.packages}}. This allows e.g.\sspace{}the translations |
| shipped in \R 3.x.y to be updated to those currently in |
| \samp{R-patched}, even by a user without administrative privileges. |
| |
| The package has a \samp{Depends} field which restricts it to versions |
| \code{3.x.*} for a single \code{x}. |
