Package: po4a
Version: 0.45-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

help2man recently gained i18n of its info pages, and I just noticed an
issue while reviewing the French translation that can be seen, e.g., in
the already available German one:

The original texi file contains in its menu:

* Localised man pages::         Producing native language manual pages.

The German PO files is translated as:

#. type: node
#: help2man.texi:85 help2man.texi:399
#, no-wrap
msgid "Localised man pages"
msgstr "Lokalisierte Handbuchseiten"

#. type: menuentry
#: help2man.texi:85
msgid "Producing native language manual pages." 
msgstr "Erstellen von Handbuchseiten in verschiedenen Sprachen."

The generated l10n texi becomes in German (note the newline):

* Lokalisierte Handbuchseiten::  Erstellen von Handbuchseiten in 
                                   verschiedenen Sprachen.

And the generated info file is broken (“in” from the end of the first
line is concatenated with “verschiedenen” beginning the second line):

* Lokalisierte Handbuchseiten::  Erstellen von Handbuchseiten
                                   inverschiedenen Sprachen.

I guess it would be just a matter of declaring menuentry as no-wrap but
I didn’t see obviously where that should be set.

Another point: it seems like “info” is expecting “@node Top” as is, so
it’s pointless to make “Top” translatable until info gain more i18n
abilities (I didn’t even managed to see the installed German translation
by declaring some German locale anyway).

Regards

David
