Three years ago there was no ioprintf function. I don't see the relationship between these two sentences. Anyway, how would you translate those messages into a language requiring different word ordering? What about a right-to-left language? -- - mdz -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I have read the bug log about this bug and it looks like the argument for not translating the mentioend strings has been widely explained (even if one does not agree about it...like I do). Anyway, I think that, as obviously nothing will be done for fixing that bug, it should probably be either closed or marked as wontfix. Any advice? There are definitely some strings which should be marked translatable, but not all of those in the patch; I just don't have time to sort them out at the moment. Also, even for strings which should be marked translated, the patch has bugs like this: cout _(Found ) List.size() _( package indexes and ) sList.size() _( source indexes.) endl; so there is work to be done, but the patch is not suitable. -- - mdz -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
