SUMMARY
***
The translation is not getting updated. I used to test my translation on daily updates. However, it seems the CI is not building the translation packages since long time.

Comment 2 Zayed Al-Saidi 2021-11-26 13:10:00 UTC

We do not use language packs. I'll repeat my question: for example which applications?

Sorry, I wasn't accurate. Currently, I get the latest build of KDE application on daily basis, but I don't get the latest translation from svn trunk (Arabic Language). I notice this on the following applications (because I update the translation in svn trunk /trunk/l10n-kf5/ar/messages, but I don't see the translated strings in the next day build):
1- Dolphin 
2- konsole
3- okular
4- gwenview
5-  plasma-workspace

I hope this will help.

Comment 5 Harald Sitter 2021-12-06 11:00:28 UTC

Thanks, that helped figure out what's wrong.

The svn internal database of our checkout got corrupted and svn is apparently unable to deal with that ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

This resulted in the checkout not updating for more than a month. I've now added automatic recovery logic to our checkout management so this doesn't happen again, hopefully.
