Description Danilo Segan 2003-10-04 21:52:22 UTC 
(Following paragraphs copied from bug 116236 verbatim :-)
As mentioned in
http://developer.gnome.org/doc/tutorials/gnome-i18n/developer.html#plurals,
the common way of handling plurals is broken for many locales. A way to
solve this is by using ngettext instead, as mentioned in that document.

A simple code example of code using ngettext:

  g_printf (ngettext ("Found %d file.", "Found %d files.", nbr_of_files),
nbr_of_files);



This is the relevant message.

#: make-iso.c:586
#, c-format
msgid "Not enough space to store CD image (%ld Megabytes needed)"

I'll attach a patch below.
