Re: [Gramps-devel] 57 or more characters on full filename path ?

[jerome <rom...@ya...>]

I was wrong, it is not related to length ...
It is a pointer issue (wrong path to filename!)

These modules were not parsed and some of them do not have translation strings anymore... eg, the debug tool 'gramps/plugins/tool/populatesources.py'!

I suppose this could be fixed by using a relative path (ie. to exclude root path: the location for the gramps directory).


Thanks!
Jérôme
