[Bug 203603] New: Country names in digikam should come from iso_3166 GNU package

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=203603

           Summary: Country names in digikam should come from iso_3166 GNU
                    package
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: [hidden email]
        ReportedBy: [hidden email]


Version:            (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

DigiKam recently got a lot more messages to translate which are country names.
All these names are already in the GNU package iso_3166 where these names are
translated also. I suggest to use this package and consequently the
translations of this package and not introduce a lot more messages in digiKam
to translate.

The country names are already available in translated from from
KGlobal::locale()->countryCodeToName(QString countryCode).  You can use
KGlobal::locale()->allCountriesList() to obtain a list of all Country Codes.
This assumes kdebase/runtime/i10n is installed which may not always be the
case.

This adheres my point that adding all these names to digiKam, which end up in
digikam.pot, are not necessary.

A small correction to my earlier point, kdebase/runtime is a prerequisite for
all KDE apps, so you can always rely on the full list of translated country
names being available from KLocale.

I fear that Digikam cannot use allCountriesList() if i believe the comment in
digikam/libs/template/countryselector.cpp:

// We cannot use KLocale::allCountriesList() here because KDE only
// support 2 characters country codes. XMP require 3 characters country
// following ISO 3166
(http://userpage.chemie.fu-berlin.de/diverse/doc/ISO_3166.html)

At least not until it support 3 characters country codes then.

Now the list of countries in digiKam is rather limited. So I would suggest to
use a translation table between the currently used two character country codes
and the 3 character codes used in XMP. This avoids translation of country names
in more than two places.

I've been looking for an excuse to add support for the 3 character code into
KLocale, I'll try sort something out this week in time for 4.4.  Not
immediately useful for you, but I'd agree with the code translation table idea
for the interim rather than adding new translation strings.  I have a table of
the entities currently supported in KDE and their various codes at
kdebase/runtime/l10n/entities.ods if you need something to copy/paste.

Right.

In digiKam, Countries list has disappear due to factoring in libkexiv2.

This must be done too into MetadataEdito kipi-plugin.
