I was getting the following error while running the test suite on Windows:
{{{
======================================================================
FAIL: test_comments_extractor
(i18n.commands.extraction.BasicExtractorTests)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Django\django\tests\i18n\commands\extraction.py", line 83, in
test_comments_extractor
self.assertTrue('#. Translators: One-line translator comment #3' in
po_contents)
AssertionError: False is not true
}}}
After some investigation I realized that this only happened while using
Cygwin's 0.18.1 version of gettext: switching to the Windows 0.18.1 binary
from [http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/dependencies/ here]
(as [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/i18n/translation
/#gettext-on-windows recommended]) caused the test to pass.
I'm guessing this has something to do with the handling of line breaks,
since I was also able to make the test pass by removing the line break
between `{% comment %}` and `Translators:` in
`tests/i18n/commands/templates/test.html`. I haven't investigated much
further.
So this does not seem to be a Django bug, but I thought I'd mention it...
