[Bug 495207] Re: Using two quotes instead of double quotes prevent translation of messages

 

We are using GNU gettext library for syntax checking translations. This
sounds like an upstream bug. It'd be nice if someone can confirm if
that's true.

Status in Launchpad Translations: Incomplete

Bug description:
Hello,

Launchpad refuses to accept translations containing brackets - { and }. This is somewhat problematic as it prevents some translations to be done - in JOSM, for instance: https://translations.launchpad.net/josm/trunk/+pots/josm/fr/+translate?batch=10&show=all&search=Warning%3A+object+%27%27{0}%27%27+is+already+deleted+on+the+server.+Skipping+this+object+and+retrying+to+upload.

Launchpad will refuse any translation containing brackets with the following error message:
Unexpected form data

Launchpad doesn't understand the form data submitted in this request.

This bug was reported by François Blondet in the lp-l10n-fr mailing list. Feel free to ask if any additional input is necessary.
