@Marco: The issue was caused by the fact that LP used an older (xenial)
version of gettext. So as soon as they upgrade, it should be possible to
drop the workaround. Can't tell if they have done that yet; easiest to
ask Colin or William.

Title:
  LP refuses to import plural strings where e.g. msgstr[0] entries in PO
  file miss %d

Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  Some strings of GNOME Shell are untranslated in the Czech translation
  on Ubuntu 18.04 although they are translated upstream and when I try
  to manually translate them on launchpad, I get this error: "number of
  format specifications in 'msgid_plural' and 'msgstr[0]' does not
  match".

  The bad strings are:
  %d minute ago
  %d minutes ago

  %d hour ago
  %d hours ago

  %d week ago
  %d weeks ago

  %d month ago
  %d months ago

  %d year ago
  %d years ago

  They seem to be correct, but they are not accepted for some reason.
