Hello Helge, thanks for the additional info.
Could you please try to reduce the files to simplify my debugging effort? It'd be great if you could come up with a file as simple as possible, ie, one short paragraph only if possible, and using UPPERCASE as a translation instead of german. We have a lot of such files in our test suite. Search for example for .man, .pot, .po and .trans files eg in t/fmt/man. (.norm is the normalized file, ie the file after po4a parsing but with no translation while .trans is the translated file, using the po file). That would be really precious to me. Thanks in advance, Mt
