That's very odd. The other message doesn't have any problem:
#: client/helpdata.c:1045
msgid ""
"* Must end turn in a city or next to land, or has a 50% risk of being lost "
"at sea.\n"
The xgettext heuristic is guessing wrong for two cases.

I don't get this warning, but it sounds like a good idea! There are
quite a few of these problems in *all* the po files. (PR#39970)

Some in data/helpdata.txt and various rulesets have:
#, no-c-format
They have:
/* xgettext:no-c-format */
I'll add it immediately!

Not really answering your question, but related news: I just today stumbled upon script fragment in the end of configure.ac that does some postprocessing for po/Makefile. One comment there says: "Vast quantities of meaningless errors from xgettext is also annoying. We fix this by forcing xgettext to assume all files are C source files." I'll investigate this a bit more. - ML ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev

More, lots of strings have "50 %". Maybe we decide between "50%%" and
"50 %"?
