Oops, I didn’t notice this backport was a string freeze break. The new
string is an error message which is very unlikely to be seen by users.

Options are:
  - Unmark the string for translation and always display the error
message in English

Untranslated strings that can not be translated are always worse than
untranslated strings because the work has just not been done. Please
don’t do that, ever.

  - Leave the string marked as translatable, and be happy with the fact
that most translators probably won’t update it and it will be
displayed in English

Happy is not the term I would use, but I can live with it. Let’s call
this an exception plea and here is 1/2 from i18n.

In fact, glib is historically not subject to the string freeze, even if we let the breakage mail appear on this list to let translators informed.
