antalotec opened a new issue, #45986:
URL: https://github.com/apache/superset/issues/45986
### Bug description
### What
The `pt` and `pt_BR` catalogs each contain **64 entries whose placeholders
no longer sit
where the source puts them**. Both catalogs carry the same 64 msgids with
character-for-character identical translations, so this looks like a single
edit applied
to both.
Two shapes:
**1. The placeholder is glued to the surrounding words** (22 entries):
| msgid | pt / pt_BR | renders as |
|---|---|---|
| `Auto refresh set to %s seconds` | `Atualização automática definida
para%ssegundos` | "…definida para30segundos" |
| `There was an issue deleting the selected %s` | `Ocorreu um problema ao
excluir o%sselecionado` | "…ao excluir odashboardselecionado" |
| `Deleted %s item(s)` | `Itens%sexcluídos` | "Itens5excluídos" |
**2. The placeholder has moved to the end of the phrase** (42 entries),
which changes the
sentence rather than just the spacing:
| msgid | pt / pt_BR | renders as |
|---|---|---|
| `Add %s view(s)` | `Adicionar visualizações%s` | "Adicionar
visualizações3" |
| `All %s hidden columns` | `Todas as colunas ocultas%s` | "Todas as colunas
ocultas12" |
| `Showing %s of %s items` | `Mostrando%sde itens%s` | placeholders in the
wrong order |
### When
Neither catalog had any of these in **6.1.0** (May 2026): the count goes
from **0** to
**64** in both. They arrived with #43022 (*chore(i18n): update pt/pt_BR
translations and
rebuild translation index*, +5735/−5720), merged on 2026-10-07.
### How to reproduce the detection
```python
import polib, re
glued = re.compile(r"\w%s\w") # both sides
one_side = re.compile(r"(\w%s(?!\w))|((?<!\w)%s\w)") # one side
for e in polib.pofile("superset/translations/pt/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po"):
if e.obsolete or not e.msgid or not e.msgstr:
continue
for pat in (glued, one_side):
if pat.search(e.msgstr) and not pat.search(e.msgid):
print(repr(e.msgid), "->", repr(e.msgstr))
break
```
Note the heuristic only makes sense for languages that separate words with
spaces: on
`zh`, `ja` or `th` it reports false positives, so any automated check would
need to skip
them.
### Why this is reported rather than fixed
Inserting the missing spaces repairs the first group, but the second needs
the sentence
rewritten so the placeholder goes back where the source has it
(`Adicionar %s visualizações`, not `Adicionar visualizações %s`). That is a
judgement call
for a Portuguese speaker, and we are not one — hence an issue rather than a
pull request.
Happy to supply the full list of the 64 msgids, or to open a PR for the
mechanical subset
if that is useful.
