Title:
  Automatic translation exports fail to commit latest translations

Status in Launchpad itself:
  Fix Released
Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  It's been brought up in the translations list that translations for
  ubuntu-docs are outdated, even though they were fetched from the daily
  automatic translations export branch.

  Looking at Launchpad for French I can see that:

  - The number of untranslated strings at the _upstream project_ [1] is 337, of a total of 2732 translatable strings
  - The numbers match exactly for the _Ubuntu source package_ [2]
  - When looking at the PO files in the exports branch [3], however, there are 555 untranslated strings (total stays the same)

  E.g.

  $ bzr branch lp:~ubuntu-core-doc/ubuntu-docs/precise-translations
  $ cd precise-translations/ubuntu-help
  $ head -n 15 fr.po

  "Language-Team: French <fr@xxxxxx>\n"
  "MIME-Version: 1.0\n"
  "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8\n"

  This means the last change in the PO file seems to have been on
  2012-04-08

  Which seems to coincide with the latest commit one day later

  $ bzr log fr.po
  ------------------------------------------------------------
  revno: 12
  committer: Launchpad Translations on behalf of ubuntu-core-doc
  branch nick: ubuntu-docs
  timestamp: Mon 2012-04-09 05:11:39 +0000
  message:
    Launchpad automatic translations update.
  ------------------------------------------------------------

  However, the exports seem to have stuck to that date, and subsequent
  new translations in Launchpad have not been committed. The number of
  untranslated strings in the PO file on the branch is 280 more than the
  untranslated count in the web UI:

  $ msgfmt -v -o /dev/null fr.po
  2177 translated messages, 555 untranslated messages.

  So it seems that:

  - Translations sharing in the Lp database is working fine for upstream and downstream
  - Up-to-date upstream translations seem to fail getting committed on the exports branch

  Could it be that translations after the latest commit date have been
  made by uploading a PO file instead of using the web UI, and thus
  changes in translations have not been detected (and not committed)?
