Error is being reported for nb 5.x-3.0 release. Please stop the packaging script for this before it gets amok on reporting error every 5 minutes.

Trying to correct the mistakes now.

and since we are not allowed to delete or move tags that have release nodes pointing to them. What should I do now? Tag the corrected files with another release?

I think the mistakes are now corrected in the translation files but please direct me to the right direction. Is there something that I should still do? Or the rest are already on your side? Thanks! :-)

Title: Packaging error » Packaging error with nb translation DRUPAL-5--3 branch

I just tried forcing a rebuild on the 5.x-3.x-dev release and the DRUPAL-5--3 branch still has errors:
http://drupal.org/node/207129
So, I don't want to try to fix the 5.x-3.0 release until the branch itself is actually working.
But yeah, first step is commit your fixes to your DRUPAL-5--3 branch.

Thanks for the effort!

I committed updated files now. Please try to force a rebuild again on the 5.x-3.x-dev release because I think the DRUPAL-5--3 branch is fixed already. Thanks!

John

Title: Packaging error with nb translation DRUPAL-5--3 branch » Translation error with nb translation original DRUPAL-5--3-0 tag
Assigned: Unassigned » dww
Status: Active » Fixed

Since the 5.x-3.0 release node was never published due to the translation error, and since the DRUPAL-5--3 branch is now working, I just moved the DRUPAL-5--3-0 tag to the end of the DRUPAL-5--3 branch, and now everything's packaged, published, and happy:
