If possible, the best solution is probably to change the message to be
identical with the already existing addressbook one:
#: addressbook/addressbook-errors.xml.h:68
msgid "Some features may not work correctly with your current server
version"
#: calendar/calendar-errors.xml.h:146
msgid " Some features may not work correctly with your current server
version "
I see no obvious reason why the calendar message should have a leading
and trailing whitespace. If those whitespaces were removed, translators
would only have to translate one such message instead of two, the
translation would automatically be reused, and there would be no string
freeze problems.
