The problem is with nautilus' ar.po file. There is a message definition
in the file twice.

You should delete one of the definitions, which can be found on the
lines indicated in the error message (4023 and 7234).

It's generally a good idea to check PO files before committing them to
CVS. The simplest way to do this is using a command such as

	msgfmt -cvv ar.po -o /dev/null

This should tell you if there are any errors in the file.

Errors in .po files can prevent applications from being compiled, so
it's important to check there aren't any before committing.
