Bug Description

The Snap Store is now being translated on Launchpad at
https://translations.launchpad.net/snap-store/trunk/+translations

Discussion: https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/where-is-the-snap-store-localized-translated/14939/6

However, I noticed that the translated messages are not pulled in when generating the snap.
I translated those extra messages for snap-store on 2020-03-23, but they do not show up in the latest Snap Store (in Ubuntu Daily).

It seems that even strings that are already translated in po files in the snap-store git repo are not actually translated. Notice the "Sign In..." and "Sign Out" buttons on this screenshot.

Specific issues with a string are probably best as a new report

@asciiwolf, this bug report is about the translations that you can see in https://translations.launchpad.net/snap-store

They are not being exported from Launchpad so that they are added to the Snap Store snap package.
This issue will be resolved soon. Being a snap package, there is no real hard deadline.

Therefore, if you can find the message "Permissions" when you search in https://translations.launchpad.net/snap-store
then this message has been localized correctly.

If, however, you can see a message in Snap Store and cannot find it when you search in https://translations.launchpad.net/snap-store
then this could possibly be a message that has not been marked (by accident) as localizable (translatable) by the developers and has not been picked up.

Simos, the "Permissions" string translation is now correctly applied in Snap Store, however the "_Permissions" string one is not although the string is available and translated on Launchpad (https://translations.launchpad.net/snap-store). Here is a new ticket for this issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/snap-store/+bug/1878672
