But since then I backported the change to `master` branch too. Did you add from both? :-) > I have a question though, what is hiding under the variables (%1 and > %2)? Adding translator comments explaining those would make it easier > to translate, Sure. * In " No suitable GIMP installations were found. %1 can only be installed when GIMP %2 is already present.", %1 is replaced by the other localizable string "GIMP Help", and %2 is the minimum version (which will be major.minor, i.e. "2.10" for instance). * In "Select all installs for which you want to install %1", %1 is replaced by the localized version of "GIMP Help". if it’s technically possible. > I just tested. We extract the string with `intltool-extract` with type `gettext/ini`. Unfortunately the file is not actually an ini file (just similar), in particular comments start with `;` whereas intltool looks for comments starting with `#`. We can still do something by adding a processing step where I'd just remove `#` line from the InnoSetup lang file before feeding it to InnoSetup (and using the un-processed file for intltool tricking it into seeing an ini file). I'll have a look. Thanks!
