GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 549854
gpm-cell.c not translator friendly
Last modified: 2008-08-31 20:23:05 UTC
The intention to split markup from pure text is basically good (like "<b>%s:</b> %s\n", _("Charge time")), but it raises other problems: space between text and punctuation, different order for RTL languages, translation of units (Wh)... A patch follows where strings are put again in their context. When markup is not simply enclosing the string (like "<b>text</b>"), it should be included in translation message, even if this is suboptimal because translators could potentially mix things up.

If this is okay to break string freeze, then it's fine with me. Thanks.
String freeze begins tomorrow evening. I announced the change on gnome-i18n. Committed in rev 2897.
