It must be done via sprintf, otherwise gettext will not work (it cannot have variables inside the strings). One exception: if it is about the Savane program, it must be changed into Savane (for instance: powered by Savane) Also, if you find ftp.gnu.org, this content is unlikely to be printed in normal conditions, exists for backward reasons, and you can safely ignore it.
