Re: Translator abuse?

[Matej Urbančič <mateju svn gnome org>]

Hello,

I started translating, and as I did, I found, that most of the strings are very new.
Fuzzy are fuzzy, not correct. Expect updates frequently until the final, without fuzzies, comes out.

M!

The first translation of these strings has landed — thanks Matej!

However, I'm wondering if I did something wrong. Some of the
translations look very suspect to me. This one, for example:

 #. http://git.infradead.org/users/dwmw2/openconnect.git/blob/3b6a105fca:/main.c
 #: ../openconnect-strings.txt:59
+#, fuzzy
 msgid "using OpenSSL"
-msgstr ""
+msgstr "Uveljavljanje popravka %s z uporabo %s\n"

Is there something wrong with the way I've set things up? Should I set
something somewhere to disallow 'fuzzy' translations?

I don't think I like "fuzzy" :)

And given that there are at least two reasons why that translation
shouldn't be considered a possible match *however* fuzzy we're being
(different printf format strings, one ends with \n and the other does
not), does this show an issue with the tools?
