    Ops, I just noticed it was intentionally disabled because of "some DPD errors".
    Can someone tell me what kind of errors are they so I can fix them please?

    The problem is that many translated strings are simply too long and cause PPD validation failures.

    PPDs have a strict 80 byte limit on translated strings, causing a string like this with less than 80 characters:

       "თუ საჭიროა, საზღვრებში ჩასატევად გვერდის დაპატარავება"
    

    ...to take up 149 bytes when encoded using UTF8.

    As far as I'm aware, the only way forward is to drastically shorten many of these strings. I don't know if that is feasible or not.

    Is there any command to see those strings? I believe not all strings need shortening.
