PoEdit usually breaks PO files headers... I'd recommend you to use another translation tool instead of PoEdit.
Try opening this same file with Gtranslator, to see if it fixes headers automagically. If I'm not wrong, ms language has no plural forms, so it should be set to "nplurals=1; plural=0;" Best regards 2014-09-17 17:42 GMT+02:00 Umarzuki Mochlis <umarz...@gmail.com>: > using poedit, I finally came to below error: > > $ msgfmt gnome-control-center.master.ms.po -c > gnome-control-center.master.ms.po:4:50: syntax error > msgfmt: gnome-control-center.master.ms.po: warning: PO file header > missing or invalid > warning: charset conversion > will not work > msgfmt: found 2 fatal errors > > below is the first few lines of gnome-control-center.master.ms.po > > # Gnome-control-center v2.0 Bahasa Melayu (ms) > # 1.
