Importing languages the rough way.

Guess it's not intended to do but this is how I import languages into Drupal 6.

  1. wget the language files needed
  2. run the script below which creates *_full.po files.
    #!/usr/bin/env bash

    for FILE in *.tar.gz
    do
      DIR=`basename $FILE ".tar.gz"`
      OUT="../${DIR}_full.po"
      [ -f $OUT ] && rm $OUT && echo "File $OUT removed ... "
      [ -d $DIR ] && rm -r $DIR && echo "directory $DIR gemoved ..."
      [ ! -d $DIR ] && mkdir $DIR && echo "directory $DIR created ..."
      cd $DIR
      tar xzf ../$FILE
      find . -type f -name "*.txt" -exec rm {} \;
      rm $OUT
      find . -type f -exec cat {} >> $OUT \;
      cd -
    done
  3. Import the 'full' po files through the web interface
  4. Choose override existing string
