Hmm, yes, I've should added that information.
The file in question is eeschema/dialogs/dialog_symbol_remap_base.cpp
the lines questionable are 24, 31, 34

e.g.
https://github.com/KiCad/kicad-source-mirror/blob/0b34d09bc01e390d614f9718809a5c0a2defa556/eeschema/dialogs/dialog_symbol_remap_base.cpp#L24

The specific last commit (the origin of this thread) on this file was
https://github.com/KiCad/kicad-source-mirror/commit/0b34d09bc01e390d614f9718809a5c0a2defa556

It looks like those strings are some time longer not included to the
translatable strings.

I know and these are valid reasons for this behavior. As the message is
visible in GUI I believe the current behavior isn't intentional.
