Jens, can't you use the "rtf" widget? If not, please add a comment for SLE10SP1 and OS 10.3. The translator might not know that he is allowed to spread the text over more than 2 lines.

Don't blame the translators, blame xgettext ;) xgettext seems to ignore the comment because the following message text starts and ends on line of its own. If you'd write it as follows, it would work: // Translators: limit to 2x 50 charachters - if more needed take 3x 50 chars but NOTHING more string nccc_top = _("\ Get technical support and product updates and manage subscriptions with Novell Customer Center."); Probably a strange xgettext limitation... I'm going to investigate. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

Thanks, Karl. It took me some time to understand so I'll rephrase: If you have unusual formatting, comments for translators will not make it to the pot files. So make sure that there are no newlines between the parentheses and quotes. Good: // Foo! _("long ... string") Bad: // Foo! _( "long ... string" ) To see how much code needs fixing I have searched[*] my system and SVN for newlines after the opening paren and found these files. (I cannot search for newlines before the closing paren because that would catch also non-gettext stuff, but that will be fixed in xgettext itself.) /isns/src/helps.ycp /iscsi-server/src/helps.ycp /registration/src/clients/suse_register_auto.ycp /registration/src/clients/inst_suse_register.ycp /printer/src/common/dialogs-connection.ycp [*] find . -name \*.ycp | xargs grep '_([^"]*$' -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
