No, they are still there. To be sure I downloaded 2.29.3.2-1, went into debian/po and looked into templates.pot. If you go into line 30 you clearly see one of the superflous spaces. Also this bug was filed *after* 2.26.3-3 was released, exactly because the spaces were present. To fix it, edit "evolution.templates" in debian/ and remove the trailing spaces in lines 4, 5 and 6. Afterwards run debconf-updatepo. Since now all translations are fuzzy, remove the fuzzy entries, details can be found in http://www.debian.org/doc/developers-reference/best-pkging-practices.html#s6.5.2.3 I don't want to do any finger pointing. I just would like the German translation to be used in it entirety, either by removing the fuzzy entry (which is incorrect) or - better - by simply removing the superflous space and unfuzzying all translations.
