following commit: https://www.lyx.org/trac/changeset/38169.
If you need to manually regenerate the layouttranslations file from .po files
run `make ../lib/layouttranslations' in the po directory. The Python polib
library is needed for building the output file.
- Under Linux: execute the command
`make ../lib/layouttranslations'
in the po directory. The Python polib library is needed for building the output
file.
- Under Windows:
1. install the Python extensions "polib". To do this,
1.1 open a commen line prompt in the folder where you find the file "pip.exe"
withing the python installation folder.
1.2 execute the command
pip install polib
2. close the command prompt and open the file "lyx.sln" with MSVC. You find
file in the compilation result folder you set for LyX
3. right click in MSVC on the target "layouttranslations1" and choose "Rebuild"
Optionally - to quickly check whether some new translatable strings appeared
for your language you can always check ../lib/layouttranslations.review.
