The po plugin needs to be updated to match the urlto sub API and signature changes. Else a wiki with the po plugin enabled cannot be refreshed / rebuilt because of (correct) Perl errors. My po branch contains a fix. --[[intrigeri]] > The commit looks sane to me, for what it's worth. Joey, please > consider merging? --[[smcv]] >> Merged. --[[Joey]] Also, I fear the lack of any useful `$from` parameter might break some l10n'd link niceness when using `po_link_to = current` but I have not investigated this yet. --[[intrigeri]] > If `urlto` is called without a second parameter, it means we need > a URL valid from either the CGI URL or any page in the wiki, > (so we'd previously have set the third parameter true), but we > don't *necessarily* need an absolute URL - so return what you'd > have returned if asked for an absolute URL, but looking like > `/bugs/` rather than `http://ikiwiki.info/bugs/` if possible. > > It looks as though `beautify_urlpath` under `po_link_to = current`, > and 3-argument `urlto`, aren't tested by `t/po.t` - perhaps you > could add some test cases there?
