Public bug reported:
While going through the translation in software-center, I found one
string, that is usually "hard" to translate correctly without a little
bit of context, that is being used in three different contexts, with at
least two different meanings.
The translatable string is: "Free".
The string already has translator comments before, but unfortunately
this is not enough. The same string looks like is used in 4 different
files, and has 2 different meanings, at least looking at the translator
comments before.
The problem is that Launchpad is showing us only 1 translatable string,
instead of at least 2.
The translator comments used are:
TRANSLATORS: Free here means Gratis
TRANSLATORS: Free here means Libre
TRANSLATORS: Free here means Gratis
The strings are located in the following files:
../softwarecenter/db/application.py:607
../softwarecenter/db/application.py:622
../softwarecenter/ui/gtk3/views/appdetailsview.py:402
../softwarecenter/ui/gtk3/views/appdetailsview.py:691
It would be best to use msgctxt: the problem being if Python 2.7
supports it out-of-the-box.
