@ramiro:
> Note the reporter claims he extracted the translatable literal from a
template but it is prefixed by a #, python-format flag in the PO file, and
that's not consistent.
That's very consistent: It is compilemessages that generated this flag,
because it saw a '%' in the string!
> because I don't see any change committed to the compilemessages
management command related to this.
Sorry, but that's not enough. You're right that the error message will go
away. Nonetheless, two percentage characters are outputted when using {%
trans "findme 10%%" %}: "findme 10%%"
Reopening. I have reproduced it on Django 1.3 and 1.2. As of now, the fix
is to use blocktrans instead, in which case you write:
{{{
{% blocktrans %}findme 10%{% endblocktrans %}
}}}
...producing correct .po gramma:
{{{
#, python-format
msgid "findme 10%%"
msgstr "findme 10%%"
}}}
...and it will correctly output "findme 10%".
