Description TianShixiong 2012-12-25 11:45:24 UTC 
Description of problem:
After recent anaconda update, 4 strings with multiple placeholders don't have names.

String ID: This Software RAID array is missing %d of %d member partitions. You can remove it or select a different device.

String ID: This LVM Volume Group is missing %d of %d physical volumes. You can remove it or select a different device.

String ID: This %s device is missing %d of %d %s. You can remove it or select a different device.

String ID: %s may not have enough space for grub2 to embed core.img when using
the %s filesystem on %s


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1.open fedora.transifex.net
2.then open anaconda master po file
3.
  
Actual results:


Expected results:
They should be like these: %(partition)d, %(device)d ...

Additional info:
It's difficult even impossible to keep the right order of multiple placeholders within one line in translation.
So please add names for them. Like those already have.

Sending off a patch for this.  If I'm reading the code correctly, the third one should not ever even be displayed so don't worry about that one.  I'll remove it.

Thank you Chris.
Hope the patch will be pushed to transifex soon.

yuminstall.py also has one:

A %s error occurred when installing the %s package.  This could indicate errors when reading the installation media.  Installation cannot continue.
Comment 4 Brian Lane 2013-01-04 01:18:49 UTC 
yeah, I know. yuminstall.py is dead code. nevermind.
Comment 5 TianShixiong 2013-01-05 11:25:22 UTC 
I didn't see the changes in transifex after the anaconda po file was updated. Problems are still there.
Comment 6 Adam Williamson 2013-05-10 05:59:05 UTC 
TianShixiong, is this still an issue?
Comment 7 TianShixiong 2013-05-10 15:55:38 UTC 
Yes, this one:
This %s device is missing %d of %d %s. You can remove it or select a different device.

Some of multiple palceholders in one string still don't have names, but it's possible to arrange the right order in translation. So I didn't list them here.
Comment 8 Adam Williamson 2013-05-10 16:32:10 UTC 
Thanks, updating to F19.
Comment 9 David Shea 2013-09-12 13:48:53 UTC 
We added a test for this in the latest anaconda and fixed what it found.
Comment 10 TianShixiong 2013-09-12 14:07:37 UTC 
Thank you.
I see the updated po in transifex.
