Let's take a portion of aptitude's Romanian translation: " #. #. * Item was never found. #. #: lib/getdef.c:330 #, c-format msgid "configuration error - unknown item '%s' (notify administrator)\n" msgstr "eroare de configurare - articol necunoscut '%s' (anunţaţi administratorul)\n" " strictly comments = " #. * Item was never found. " or better said "Item was never found." all comments = " #. #. * Item was never found. #. #: lib/getdef.c:330 #, c-format " the information that should be displayed all times, in order to have this bug closed = " #: lib/getdef.c:330 #, c-format " The format field could be missing, although it provides some useful information - I have done several times adaptations that needed some special quoted charaters, which depend on the programming language, thus proving itself to be useful, too I hope now is clearer. > You're using 1.3.1.

Are you using some other newer version than the Debian one? -- Regards, EddyP ============================================= "Imagination is more important than knowledge" A.Einstein
