Well, if that's the reason for gettexting it all, I think that line 1276
in SoftwarePropertiesGtk.py ought to be:

base_string = _("%s (%s, tested)") % ("{base_description}", "{licence}")

which would result in

msgid "%s (%s, tested)"

That way the risk for mistakes as the one described in this bug report
would be eliminated, but the translators would still be able to reorder
the arguments.

Title:
  Additional drivers tab crashes if locale is sv and recommended driver
  available

Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  Fix Committed
Status in “software-properties” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Additional drivers tab crashes on swedish locale if there are
  "recommended" drivers available. This is because the keyword/property
  "licence" mistakenly has been translated to "license" (note the "s").
  See bug #1268134 for further info

     #: ../softwareproperties/gtk/SoftwarePropertiesGtk.py:1276
     #, python-brace-format
     msgid "{base_description} ({licence}, tested)"
     msgstr "{base_description} ({license}, testad)"

  This error has already been corrected in the translation on launchpad,
  but when can we expect it to be pushed out?
