Package: po4a Version: 0.41-1 Severity: normal While working on the German man page translation for po4a, I noticed that C<> is not translated correctly. Take, e.g.,
#. type: textblock
#: lib/Locale/Po4a/Sgml.pm:144
msgid ""
"The problem is that I have to \"protect\" the conditional inclusions (i.e. "
"the C<E<lt>! [ %foo [> and C<]]E<gt>> stuff) from nsgmls. Otherwise nsgmls "
"eats them, and I don't know how to restore them in the final document. To "
"prevent that, I rewrite them to C<{PO4A-beg-foo}> and C<{PO4A-end}>."
msgstr ""
"Das Problem liegt darin, dass ich die bedingte Einbindung (d.h. das Zeug "
"C<E<lt>! [ %foo [> und C<]]E<gt>>) vor Nsgmls »schützen« muss. Andernfalls "
"futtert Nsgmls das auf und ich weiß nicht, wie ich das im letztendlichen "
"Dokument wieder herstellen kann. Um das zu vermeiden, schreibe ich sie in "
"C<{PO4A-beg-foo}> und C<{PO4A-end}> um."
The version as shown by man is as follows:
Das Problem liegt darin, dass ich die bedingte Einbindung (d.h. das
Zeug "<! [ %foo [" und "]]>") vor Nsgmls »schützen« muss. Andernfalls futtert
Nsgmls das auf und ich weiß nicht, wie
ich das im letztendlichen Dokument wieder herstellen kann. Um das zu
vermeiden, schreibe ich sie in "{PO4A-beg-foo}" und "{PO4A-end}" um.
The first (manual) quote around "protect" is manually translated and
looks fine (i.e. »«). The strings with C<>, however, retain their
characters as is (which are neither quotes in English nor in German).
A side issue (though not part of this bug): What are the rules for
manual quotes vs. C<>?
