Description Cyril François 2011-10-26 21:33:15 UTC

Description of problem:

In the POT uploaded file "libreport_master_en.po" on transifex.net, each "\1" string is written "^A".

Example extracted from libreport_master_en.po :

#: ../src/cli/cli.c:48
msgid ""
" [-vsp] -L[PREFIX] [DUMP_DIR]\n"
"   or:  [-vsp] -e EVENT DUMP_DIR\n"
"   or:  [-vsp] -a[y] DUMP_DIR\n"
"   or:  [-vsp] -c[y] DUMP_DIR\n"
"   or:  [-vsp] -r[y|o|d] DUMP_DIR"

Same string part in cli.c :

"\1 [-vsp] -L[PREFIX] [DUMP_DIR]\n"
"   or: \1 [-vsp] -e EVENT DUMP_DIR\n"
"   or: \1 [-vsp] -a[y] DUMP_DIR\n"
"   or: \1 [-vsp] -c[y] DUMP_DIR\n"
"   or: \1 [-vsp] -r[y|o|d] DUMP_DIR"

With the above changes, "&<whitespace>" is replaced by PROGNAME<whitespace>. All other instances of & are not replaced.
