Hello, Coreutils 8.17 introduced a small change in the message catalogue which causes considerable problems to translators.
The part which causes problems is: #: src/fmt.c:285 #, c-format msgid "" " -t, --tagged-paragraph indentation of first line different from second\n" " -u, --uniform-spacing one space between words, two after sentences\n" " -w, --width=WIDTH maximum line width (default of 75 columns)\n" " -g, --goal=WIDTH goal width (default of 93% of width)\n" msgstr "" Apparently, msgfmt interprets "% o" in the help text of the --goal option as a format specifier. This means that the translations will be rejected unless the translation also contains the same sequence: % being followed by a space, being followed by a small o. All the best, Primož
