Hi Guillem,

thanks a lot for filing this bug. I can confirm the problem and did some
research with git bisect. I found out that this bug has been introduced
into po4a about six years ago with this commit:

https://github.com/mquinson/po4a/commit/ffb0f208867252990046987f16b92223a2f9ad3b

It seems that the .po-files of fortunes-debian-hints have not been
updated for quite some time ... :-)

However, this is just as a short information if anyone wants to look
into the problem. I probably won't have the time in the next days, but
the commit might help to better spot the problem.

Regards,
Tobias
