There was a lot of inconsistency in how strings that should not be
translated (program names, option flags, PKGBUILD directives, etc) were
handled. This patch moves them all outside the gettext invocation for
consistency and to prevent accidental translation.
Note that some of these may need reverted if they cause difficulties in
translation due to gettext usage in bash not taking positional parameters
for arguments. A quick survey of current translations idicates that this
"indicates"
issue will be rare. Also, we should be able to catch these before a full
string freeze given we are going to probably need a "developer preview"
release before the next release series.
This seems reasonable. Gettext pisses me off a lot here that it can't
support these, almost tempted to say we could write a wrapper function
but that seems overkill.
Do you want to do the message catalog split to possibly make catching
these errors easier?
You mean splitting makepkg (and the rest of the bash scripts) into their own
translation unit? It is on my TODO list, but I have not quite figured out
how to do that yet...
It shouldn't be that hard. I'll give it a shot here real quick...
"real quick" turned out to be a bit more work to make things readable
and logical, but here we go:

Let me know what you think about merging this.
Looks good. Merge away.
