Thanks for checking, commented back. Sorry about the woe with the
patch.

If you merge two "events" spanning several days, then the date span is
shown below the key photo and in the event browser (see http://shotwell
-project.org/dav/datespan.png)
I also understood the splitting now, it is used to create different
span texts such as "Sat, July 4 - 5, 20X6" for two consecutive days,
"Sat, July 4 - Mon, July 6, 20X6" for consecutive days in the same
month in the same year and the full-blown string.
I suppose I should just add three format string for the three cases
with extensive translator comments?

The behaviour seems to be a bit random. sometimes make shotwell.pot-
update also runs fine.
Thanks!
