Subject: [PATCH 1/2] log.c: fix translation markings
Date: Tue, 6 Jan 2015 02:34:18 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <ecb18f9d6ac56da0a61c3b98f8f2236@74d39fa044aa309eaea14b9f57fe79c> (raw)
The parse_options API expects an array of alternative usage lines
to which it automatically ads the language-appropriate "or" when
displaying. Each of these options is marked for translation with N_
and then later translated when gettext is called on each element
of the array.
Since the N_ macro just expands to its argument, if two N_-marked
strings appear next to each other without being separated by anything
else such as a comma, the preprocessor will join them into one string.
In that case two separate strings get marked for translation, but at
runtime they have been joined into a single string passed to gettext
which then fails to get translated because the combined string was
never marked for translation.
Fix this by properly separating the two N_ marked strings with
a comma and removing the embedded "\n" and " or:" that are
properly supplied by the parse_options API.
