On the other hand, if I were to get an English message in a program which I knew to be translated, that would also be grounds for reporting an error. Also if the user's program stops working, the user has a right (in a sense) to understand the error message. (It is not my impression that bug reports in different languages are common at all, but you may know better of course.)

Some ideas: partition contains open LUKS encryption for a “create file system only” step partition contains open LUKS encryption for file system creation LUKS encryption currently opened on partition for file system creation Maybe you can even come up with something better, but I think adding the quotes like in the first suggestion is a minimum. -- Alexandre Franke GNOME Hacker & Foundation Director ___ gnome-i18n mailing list gnome-i18n@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n

Hey, There's a series of strings that look odd and we're not sure how to translate them best in French. Can you enlighten us? It's all the “partition contains open LUKS encryption for a * step” strings.

Instead of making “less work” for translators, you're actually making more work for them. You will have more translators translate the bad string, and then you will have all translator translate the fixed string. If this was during the GNOME cycle and you'd be asking for a freeze break for this, given the context and given the remaining time till release, I'd grant 1 of 2 needed approvals.
