gnome-utils logview message needs translator comment
Last modified: 2005-03-08 21:19:28 UTC
#: logview/logview.c:894 #, c-format msgid "%s (monitored) - %s" You might want to add a translator comment (http://developer.gnome.org/doc/tutorials/gnome-i18n/developer.html#use-comments) here, so that a translator knows what the %s's will get filled with in this message. This is because a translator might want to reverse the specifiers in his translation (think right-to-left languages), but in order to know if he has to do that he obviously needs to know what the specifiers are used for. There is another "%s - %s" message nearby in the code that isn't marked for translation -- perhaps it should be for the same reason. In that case, it also needs a translator comment.
This is now hopefully fixed on HEAD. Please re-open if you see any mistake.
This was committed to the gnome-2-10 branch. Please revert it from that branch, as it breaks string freeze.
Oops, my mistake. I was not aware that the string freeze was still in effect. I've removed the string from the translation list on the gnome-2-10 branch.
