This is really strange. Something seems to have been wrong with the original file header of the Kurdish translation. I haven't been able to really identify what exactly but managed to fix the file anyway..:-) (actually by just opening it in KBabel and save it again) See attached file. For Tobias, attached is a script I use to check PO files (as well as resync them with a POT lying in the current directory) before commiting them. It uses another script named check_var.pl which is more aimed at testing po-debconf translations using variable substitution.
