You can use Gramps also to keep track of the pedigree of breed animals. Note however that no special provisions are available for this. e.g. a bull will have countless families, and numerous children, for which the Gramps interface is not really designed.

[edit] Animal translation file
For easy working with animals in Gramps, it helps if some terminology is changed. That is
- Person -> Animal
- Father -> Sire
- Mother -> Dam
- Marriage -> Pairing
...
The file File:Gramps animal 2 2 6.po.gz, File:Animal.po.gz (3.1.3) are an English sub-translation that makes using Gramps far more intuitive when dealing with animals.
Example output from a build using this file can be seen here (dogs in french).
[edit] How to install the animal translation file
NOTE: this is a hack! Use with caution.
- Adaptation is done on the source code, by overwriting a language-country code you don't need. So first, you need to get the source code. Download with those instructions the source code of version 3.1. For example:
svn co https://gramps.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/gramps/branches/maintenance/gramps31/
- Change directory to the source code and make sure it builds:
cd [myhome/mypath/]gramps31 ./autogen.sh make
Initial build requirement for Ubuntu 7.04:
sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev gnome-common
- All OK? Now to apply the hack - download File:Gramps animal 2 2 6.po.gz or File:Animal.po.gz (3.1.3) and unzip it in the gramps31/po directory
cp gramps_animal_2_2_6.po.gz [myhome/mypath/]gramps31/po cd [myhome/mypath/]gramps31/po gzip -d gramps_animal_2_2_6.po.gz
- Now you have to use a locale that you wouldn't usually use. For instance, if your locale is en_GB, use en_US. create a symbolic link to gramps_animal_2_2_6.po in the po directory. The en_US locale is an example in all the command lines below. In the po directory do:
Update the translation according to last code :
msgmerge gramps_animal_2_2_6.po gramps.pot -o en_US.po
- And make sure the po/Makefile picks up the special locale that you chose:
perl -n -i -e 'if(/^ALL_LINGUAS/){chop; print "$_ en_US\n"}else{print $_}' Makefile
- The gramps31/Makefile also needs to be modified to add the previously unused locale:
cd ..
perl -n -i -e 'if(/^ALL_LINGUAS/){chop; print "$_ en_US\n"}elsif(/^CATALOGS/||/^GMOFILES/) \
{chop; print "$_ en_US.gmo\n"}elsif(/^POFILES/){chop; "$_ en_US.po\n"}else{print $_}' Makefile
- Now you can build again:
make
To install this version globally, overwriting the install of your package manager, also do
sudo make install
- To run Gramps with the new locale applied, all that is required in the case of a global install is:
LANGUAGE=en_US gramps
In the case you only have Gramps locally, do instead
cd [myhome/mypath/]gramps31/src LANGUAGE=en_US python gramps.py
- Enjoy!
