-broken links to translatable basewiki pages that lack po files
---------------------------------------------------------------
-
-If a page is not translated yet, the "translated" version of it
-displays wikilinks to other, existing (but not yet translated?)
-pages as edit links, as if those pages do not exist.
-
-That's really confusing, especially as clicking such a link
-brings up an edit form to create a new, english page.
-
-This is with po_link_to=current or negotiated. With default, it doesn't
-happen..
-
-Also, this may only happen if the page being linked to is coming from an
-underlay, and the underlays lack translation to a given language.

->>> Seems not related to the page/string translation status: the 0%

->>>> After a few hours lost in the Perl debugger, I think I have found
->>>> the root cause of the problem: in l10n wiki's configured
->>>> `underlaydir`, the basewiki is present in every slave language
->>>> that is enabled for this wiki *but* Swedish. With such a
->>>> configuration, the `ikiwiki/wikilink` page indeed does not exist
->>>> in Swedish language: no `ikiwiki/wikilink.sv.po` can be found

->>>> <http://l10n.ikiwiki.info/ikiwiki/>, the basewiki is not
->>>> available in Swedish language on this wiki. So this is not a po

-
->>>>>> Ok. The problem is triggered when using a language that doesn't
->>>>>> have translated underlays, *and* defining
->>>>>> `po_translatable_pages` in a way that renders the base wiki
->>>>>> pages translatable in po's view of things, which in turns makes
->>>>>> the po plugin act as if the translation pages did exist,
->>>>>> although they do not in this case. I still need to have a deep
->>>>>> look at the underlays-related code you added to `po.pm` a while
->>>>>> ago. Stay tuned. --[[intrigeri]]
-
->>>>>>> Fixed in my po branch, along with other related small bugs that
->>>>>>> happen in the very same situation only. --[[intrigeri]]
