This won't work, the msgid in the gettext catalogue is for "hello
%(title)s", not the interpolated version. It should be like so:
test1 = _("hello %(title)s") % {'title': book1.title})
So first you get the translated version of the format string, then you
interpolate that with your variables, not the other way around.
Cheers
