Comment (by internaut):

 I stumbled upon this discussion because "fuzzy" entries in the PO files
 caused big problems for me, too. I mean, "fuzzy" is ''way'' to fuzzy in
 makemessages. Some examples: The string "has geolocation" gets a fuzzy
 match to the string "Translation". "Further description" is believed to be
 the same as "Add an inscription". "edit" is supposed to be the same as
 "edition". It's just ridiculous. Because Django doesn't have a "non-fuzzy"
 option for makemessages, I ended up hacking
 ''./core/management/commands/makemessages.py'' and adding ''-N'' to the
 list of msgmerge arguments on line 197. I honestly don't understand why no
 option to disable fuzzy matching is added to makemessages.
