Package: po4a Version: 0.46-1 Severity: normal Hi,
I just spent a fair amount of time searching what did I do wrong while updating some manpages-fr-extra PO files, and finally figured out that the “Man module splits tbl's textblocks into separate lines” change in po4a was likely the cause of the fair amount of changes I witnessed in the PO file I was currently dealing with. Please, do at least add a NEW entry to help user figure out that this change may cause a fair amount of new fuzzied strings when upgrading to this version. With po4a 0.45-1: $ LC_ALL=C make stats findutils: 760 translated messages. […] procps: 1948 translated messages. […] util-linux: 3683 translated messages, 575 fuzzy translations, 311 untranslated messages. (or, with the file I was currently working on) util-linux: 4397 translated messages, 43 fuzzy translations, 129 untranslated messages. After upgrading po4a to 0.46-1: $ LC_ALL=C make stats findutils: 716 translated messages, 35 fuzzy translations, 15 untranslated messages. […] procps: 1507 translated messages, 199 fuzzy translations, 222 untranslated messages. […] util-linux: 3647 translated messages, 625 fuzzy translations, 329 untranslated messages. (or, with the file I was currently working on) util-linux: 4322 translated messages, 132 fuzzy translation, 147 untranslated messages. Having to deal with hundreds of noop changes is not really nice, even less so when it comes as a surprise.
