gsettingsschema: Print the string that failed to parse (1.17 KB, patch)

Description Christian Persch 2014-09-23 09:11:58 UTC 
When the translated value of a key in a schema failed to parse, it prints the untranslated string instead of the translated one, so one can't see the problem.

gsettingsschema: Print the string that failed to parse

When parsing a translated value fails, print the actual string that
failed to parse instead of the 'domain\004string' untranslated string.
