Description Vincent Untz 2012-03-26 08:10:09 UTC 
I'm building aisleriot 3.4.0 (from the tarball), with itstool 1.1.2, and the build ends with:

make[2]: Entering directory `/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/aisleriot-3.4.0/help'
  GEN    ca/ca.po
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/itstool", line 949, in <module>
    doc = Document(filename, messages)

    ctxt = libxml2.createFileParserCtxt(filename)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/libxml2.py", line 1416, in createFileParserCtxt
    if ret is None:raise parserError('xmlCreateFileParserCtxt() failed')
libxml2.parserError: xmlCreateFileParserCtxt() failed

Hrm, actually, this is related to https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=669572

The tarball doesn't contain the .po files, but just the xml files...
Comment 2 Vincent Untz 2012-03-26 08:13:08 UTC 
Christian: you might want to roll a new tarball :/
Comment 3 Shaun McCance 2012-03-26 09:07:45 UTC 
So not a bug in itstool, right? Arguably it should give a helpful error message and return a non-zero exit status, instead of crash with a trace. But itstool can't do much when the po file you reference doesn't exist.
Comment 4 Christian Persch (GNOME) 2012-03-26 09:15:41 UTC 
Yes, it's a yelp-tools bug. (And I'm not going to make new tarballs until that's fixed :-) )

Well, not crashing would be a good first step, yes.

I can file the yelp-tools bug if you want, but I was being lazy since you'd be the one receiving it ;-)
