I should have noticed that was not the string that was actually used, as
it is "em" that appears in the output. It will be one of the following
translations:
msgstr "@tie{}--- {category} em {class}: {name}{arguments}"
msgstr "@tie{}--- {category} em {class}: {name} {arguments}"
msgstr "@tie{}--- {category} em {class}: {name}"
msgstr "@tie{}--- {category} em {class}:@*{type}@*{name}{arguments}"
msgstr "@tie{}--- {category} em {class}:@*{type}@*{name} {arguments}"
msgstr "@tie{}--- {category} em {class}: {type} {name}{arguments}"
msgstr "@tie{}--- {category} em {class}: {type} {name} {arguments}"
msgstr "@tie{}--- {category} em {class}:@*{type}@*{name}"
msgstr "@tie{}--- {category} em {class}: {type} {name}"
msgstr "@tie{}--- {category} em {class}: {type} {name}{arguments}"
msgstr "@tie{}--- {category} em {class}: {type} {name} {arguments}"
msgstr "@tie{}--- {category} em {class}: {type} {name}"
msgstr "{category} em @code{{class}}:@* "
msgstr "{category} em @code{{class}}: "
