While translating the new version of coreutils to Swedish, I came across this code from the end of chown-core.h:
printf (_("\ --from=CURRENT_OWNER:CURRENT_GROUP\n\ change the %sgroup of each file only if\n\ its current owner and/or group match those specified\n\ here. Either may be omitted, in which case a match\n\ is not required for the omitted attribute\n\ "), user ? "owner and/or " : ""); As this stands, the part "owner and/or " will not be translated. Simply marking that part too for translation is not a good solution, even if it would happen to work for Swedish.
