The build of gnome-shell 3.28.0-0ubuntu4 was not sufficient to fix this. The POT file without javascript comments was imported, but LP still complained about the PO files for the affected languages.
The upstream PO files have those javascript comments too. As a test I took the upstream Czech file, removed the javascript comments, and uploaded manually. Imported without errors. Next thought: Was the first failure about timing, i.e. did LP use the info in the old template to validate the PO files? To test that I took the upstream Serbian file and uploaded it manually without removing the javascript comments. Imported without errors. Conclusion: A no-change rebuild ought to be sufficient to fix it in gnome-shell for the other affected languages. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1756547 Title: LP refuses to import plural strings where e.g. msgstr[0] entries in PO file miss %d Status in Launchpad itself: New Status in Ubuntu Translations: In Progress Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Bug description: Some strings of GNOME Shell are untranslated in the Czech translation on Ubuntu 18.04 although they are translated upstream and when I try to manually translate them on launchpad, I get this error: "number of format specifications in 'msgid_plural' and 'msgstr[0]' does not match".
