Weblate change empty to "None" after commit on Ruby YAML

[Richar-p]

Hello,

I'm currently trying to install weblate for my project which is partially already translated,
But for missing value, it change it into "None"

(one the screenshot, there is also some line deleted, no idea why also, but i didn't take a look on it for now)

Is it the same kind of bug than #10481 or am i doing something wrong with my config ?

Thanks

@nijel FYI in ruby None does not exist so when parsed by the ruby YAML parser it returns a string with None:

$ irb
irb(main):001> require 'yaml'
=> true
irb(main):002> YAML.parse('foo: None').children[0].children[1].value
=> "None"
irb(main):003>

It seems like an issue in translate-toolkit while serializing the file.

We take time in internal to take a look on that today, and the issues seems to be around the _parse_dict method, into the yaml.py file, especially with the multistring usage.

We will make a PR soon to fix it, if you can take a look quickly on it when it is available it can be cool, it's a major locking point for us

Thanks you

Can you please review if translate/translate#5480 addresses the issue for you?

[Richar-p]

Since the fix are merged on the translate-toolkit, what is the following process ?
Do you have an ETA of a new release of Weblate with this fix ?

Thanks a lot again for your reactivity.

It needs a translate-toolkit release, I will wait at least a week or two for that to collect other fixes as we've just released one version this week.

It took long time for us to update our stack, sorry.

I confirm the none bug is resolved with the last update, thanks !
