Comment (by Vasyl Dizhak):
We've been working on this issue during the Sprints after the DjangoCon
Europe 2024 and this issue is related to #34221 as we can link it with the
same wrong behavior when comparing the plural functions.
Django uses the following plural function
{{{
"Plural-Forms: nplurals=2; plural=(n != 1);\n"
}}}
which matches exactly with the one from the demo repository
https://github.com/DmytroLitvinov/django-i18n-
issue/blob/main/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/django.po#L19C28-L19C43, therefore,
local translations will be merged into the first catalog together with
Django's translations.
The `allauth` package has a different plural function that would insert
it in the first position in the translation catalog
https://github.com/pennersr/django-
allauth/blob/main/allauth/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/django.po#L20
{{{
"Plural-Forms: nplurals=2; plural=n != 1;\n"
}}}
`gettext` would check first the 3d-party `allauth` translations catalog as
it has higher precedence, and only then look at the merged one containing
the local files.
We propose to close it as a duplicate to the #34221.
