I don't see such messages here when testing your translation. Italian builds fine and without errors. Also when looking at your latest commit https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/ddp/debian-reference.git/commit/?id=14c4a31705c521825c1250b2d0b41b0f770db7c8 everything looks fine. There are no messages deleted from the po files or the like. If you still see such messages on your PC, I suspect there might be some software missing? The toolchain to build such documents is rather ambitious sometimes... 'apt-get build-dep debian-reference' should install everything that's needed, or look at https://packages.debian.org/source/stretch/debian-reference > and it looks to me like (almost) all messages related to entity > translations in the .po file become commented and unused. > > I don't think this is what is supposed to happen. > > I see there is also a "make entity" target.
