New description:
If django.po contains these lines:
{{{
msgid "This is a string with a %(variable)d."
msgstr "Das ist eine Zeichenkette ohne Variable."
}}}
This error will occur when compiling with
{{{
django-admin.py compilemessages
}}}
''a format specification for argument »items« doesn't exist in »msgstr«''
BUT if a translation file for JavaScript djangojs.po contains the same
lines no error will occur and this mistake will not be discovered until
you stumble upon it by chance.
