translation issues

../src/Extensions/Banshee.Daap/Banshee.Daap/DaapSource.cs:234: msgstr "Loading {0} tracks." what if {0} == 1? what if languages have more than one plural form? please provide proper ngettext support, see http://live.gnome.org/TranslationProject/DevGuidelines/Plurals --- # Translators: {0} and {1} are markup, {2} is the name of the radio station ../src/Core/Banshee.ThickClient/Banshee.Gui.Widgets/TrackInfoDisplay.cs:382 msgstr "{0}on{1} {2}" still not helpful. no idea how to translate "on" in that context and why it is missing spaces around. Entire code looks badly concatenated and likely leads to l10n problems: // Translators: {0} and {1} are markup, {2} is the name of the radio station string on = MarkupFormat (Catalog.GetString ("{0}on{1} {2}"), radio_track.ParentTrack.TrackTitle); /* Translators: {0} is the "from {album} by {artist}" type string, and {1} is the "on {radio station name}" string */ markup = String.Format (Catalog.GetString ("{0} {1}"), by_from, on); --- ../src/Extensions/Banshee.Podcasting/Banshee.Podcasting.Gui/DownloadManager/DownloadUserJob.cs:52 msgstr "Are you sure that you'd like to cancel all podcast downloads?" Please avoid "'d". --- ../src/Core/Banshee.ThickClient/Banshee.Gui/GlobalActions.cs:185 msgstr "Import" verb or noun? http://live.gnome.org/TranslationProject/DevGuidelines/Use%20comments --- ../src/Core/Banshee.Services/Banshee.Query/BansheeQuery.cs:157 msgstr "comment" verb or noun? http://live.gnome.org/TranslationProject/DevGuidelines/Use%20comments --- ../src/Core/Banshee.ThickClient/Banshee.Gui/ViewActions.cs:72 "Toggle Fullscreen Mode" Please avoid using "toggle" as a verb, instead use terms such as "switch". See http://www.mail-archive.com/gnome-doc-list@gnome.org/msg03142.html --- ../src/Dap/Banshee.Dap.Mtp/Banshee.Dap.Mtp/MtpSource.cs:149 "Loading {0} - {1} of {2}" a comment would be nice in order to properly translate this.
I had trouble translating most of these to Dutch as well. (I resorted to reading the source code, which is NOT GOOD.) Raising severity.
Moving from http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=503844#c5 because the rest are intltool/gettext issues: msgid "Listen to the Last.fm {0} station for this artist" - What does {0} refer to? Please add a comment.
This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.
