However I don't know if the test logic is sufficient to detect all errors. http://dcwww.camd.dtu.dk/~askhl/files/warnings.txt http://dcwww.camd.dtu.dk/~askhl/files/bfd-stringcheck.py (requires pyg3t) Best regards Ask 2016-10-20 16:34 GMT+02:00 Ask Hjorth Larsen <asklar...@gmail.com>: > Hi Nick > > I just tested a message like this: > > #: coff-sh.c:2780 cofflink.c:2964 > #, c-format > msgid "%B: illegal symbol index %ld in relocs" > msgstr "%A: advarsel: illegalt symbolindeks %ld i relokeringerne" > > Note how the translation contains an erroneous %A instead of the correct %B. > > This is accepted by msgfmt.
