Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.
This bug report isn't very useful because it doesn't describe the bug well. If you have time and can still reproduce the bug, please read http://bugzilla.gnome.org/bug-HOWTO.html and add a more useful description to this bug.
Comment 2 Djihed Afifi 2008-12-08 19:36:50 UTC 
Well, basically, any strings that use numbers should use plural forms.

Please read:

Thanks for the link!

Those incorrect strings are not used anymore in the code and the new strings handle correctly the plurals.

I keep the bug open until we regenerate the .po files.

Can the reporter of this bug set the _version_ so we can target bugs to work on more easily please. We can also have an idea about if these bugs are likely to be obsolete too.

If you don't set the version, we are less likely to look at them.

Sorry for the spam, but I don't want to say this 88 times on each bug :)
Comment 5 Martyn Russell 2010-03-16 11:33:46 UTC 
We no longer have these strings in Tracker.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.
However, you are using a version that is too old and not supported anymore. GNOME developers are no longer working on that version, so unfortunately there will not be any bug fixes for the version that you use.

By upgrading to a newer version of GNOME you could receive bug fixes and new functionality. You may need to upgrade your Linux distribution to obtain a newer version of GNOME.
Please feel free to reopen this bug if the problem still occurs with a newer version of GNOME.
