So do you prefer anything like:
pritf(lock_mode == CM_UTC ? _("Using UTC time.\n") : _("Using local time.\n"));
Right?
Yes, that would be a lot better. |
Description of problem: The following message is difficult to translate into foreign languages, I request it to be changed: sys-utils/rtcwake.c:318: printf(_("Using %s time\n"), clock_mode == CM_UTC ? "UTC" : _("local")); Please use separate sentences in situations like this, where there are only few possible alternatives that are known at compile time. Assembling sentences piece by piece often makes them hard to translate. And in any case, "UTC" should be translatable as well. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.13-rc3 Addiotional info: I am translating this piece of software through the Translation Project.
