Thanks!

It wanted to alert you that the "Action string is empty", but the zh_CN translation for that message text is broken/out-of-date:

   #: src/prefs_filtering.c:1114
   msgid "Action string is empty."
   msgstr "文件 %s 不存在。"

The "%s" in there causes g_vsnprintf to expect an argument to be provided, which is not the case, and hence it crashes.

Can you suggest a translation to replace what's found in msgstr currently?
Comment 12 Michael Schwendt 2013-05-20 10:01:14 UTC 
No idea at all?

[...]

Upstream has simply deleted the out-of-date translation as a work-around, so there's still an opportunity to contribute a translation.
