Title:
Translation: Presence of % in strings confuses Launchpad
Status in Ubuntu Translations:
New
Status in snapd package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
There are some "%" in the strings to be translated that are confused
as macros, generating an error when the translation is saved. Check
for instance the following string:
https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/noble/+source/snapd/+pots/snappy/ca/+translate?batch=10&show=all&search=%25+o
In the sixth paragraph, there is:
...
it to 50% means that the quota group...
...
and "% m" is interpreted as a macro, if it is not translated with a
word starting with "m" after this %, the string is not saved and
Launchpad says that the macros don't coincide.
Something should be done because it is not always possible to find a
matching word starting with "m" in another language, and this is not
actually a macro.
