Description Elijah Newren 2006-03-11 21:46:37 UTC 
Looks like the spanish translation borks the build:

  `which xml2po` -e -p \

    "${d}C/user-guide.xml" > user-guide.xml.tmp && \

I'm disabling spanish translations for now to get past this.  I actually just ran into this too.

Remove plural forms header from es.po

Ugh, this is a Python gettext.py bug. The problem is with Plural-Forms header.  

Simply removing it from PO file should work, eg. I'm attaching a patch for es.po.

Fix for gettext.py

This is a fix for gettext.py that fixes things. I'll submit it upstream. I may even consider including gettext.py in xml2po instead.
