- As reported on IRC, links to source code files in Weblate are broken. This is due to incorrect paths to files inside the POT file. Instead of plinth/views.py it contains views.py. This might be a regression introduced when switching to Makefile for all build tasks. - To fix, we need to run 'django-admin makemessages' command at the topic level directory in the source code repository. However, running at the top-level has problems: - Various unnecessary directories are considered. This was remedied using --ignore aruments. - The default locales directory was not being detected. This was remedied using LOCALE_PATHS in Django settings. - Django settings file was not being picked up. This was remedied using --settings option. - Django settings were being picked up from system's module path. This was remedied using --pythonpath . option. Tests: - Running 'make update-translations' updates all the files. Newly generated POT file contains plinth/ in the file paths. All locales were updated. There are no other major changes POT or language files (other than what seemed to be pending updates). - Running freedombox-develop, locale can be changed to Spanish. The changed locale is visible in UI. Changes to .po file are reflected in the UI after running 'django-admin compilemessages'. - After running freedombox using plinth.service systemd unit, locale can be changed to Spanish. The changed locale is visible in UI. Changes to .po file are reflected in the UI after running 'make build install'.

FreedomBox Service (Plinth)
The core functionality and web front-end of FreedomBox.
Description
FreedomBox is a community project to develop, design and promote personal servers running free software for private, personal communications. It is a networking appliance designed to allow interfacing with the rest of the Internet under conditions of protected privacy and data security. It hosts applications such as blog, wiki, website, social network, email, web proxy and a Tor relay, on a device that can replace your Wi-Fi router, so that your data stays with you.
This module, called FreedomBox Service and also know as Plinth, is the core functionality and web interface to the functions of the FreedomBox. It is extensible and provides various applications of FreedomBox as modules. Each module or application provides simplified user interface to control the underlying functionality. As FreedomBox can act as a wireless router, it is possible to configure networking. It also allows configuration of basic system parameters such as time zone, hostname and automatic upgrades.
You can find more information about FreedomBox Service (Plinth) on the Plinth Wiki page, the FreedomBox Wiki and the FreedomBox Manual.
Getting Started
To have a running FreedomBox, first install Debian (Buster or higher) on a clean machine. Then run:
$ sudo apt install freedombox
Full instructions are available on FreedomBox Manual's QuickStart page.
For instructions on running the service on a local machine from source code, see INSTALL.md. For instructions on setting up for development purposes, see HACKING.md.
