22671	some ungettext strings do not appear in po file if the same string was in an ugettext call elsewhere in the code	ygbo	nobody	"I can only reproduce this issue in a big project (hence https://github.com/openstack/horizon/ ) and not in a single file code, so checking out the patch-set 8 of my branch: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/91338/ is best to reproduce the issue:
{{{
git fetch https://review.openstack.org/openstack/horizon refs/changes/38/91338/8 && git checkout FETCH_HEAD
}}}
If you look in `horizon/openstack_dashboard/dashboards/project/instances/tables.py` line 97 there is a call to `return ungettext_lazy(u""Instance"", u""Instances"", count)`

now go in the `horizon/openstack_dashboard` directory and launch:
{{{
python ../manage.py makemessages -l fr
}}}
check `horizon/openstack_dashboard/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES/django.po`, `msgid_plural ""Instances""` never appears anywhere.
However, `msgid ""Instances""` appears in the pot file, but not as a plural.
The issue is not higly noticible for French, but it is for languages which handle 3,4,5 or 6 plural forms:
http://docs.translatehouse.org/projects/localization-guide/en/latest/l10n/pluralforms.html?id=l10n/pluralforms

If I try Irish:
{{{
python ../manage.py makemessages -l ga
}}}

I'm supposed to have 5 plural forms and expect to find in `horizon/openstack_dashboard/locale/ga/LC_MESSAGES/django.po`:
{{{
msgid ""Instance""                                                      
msgid_plural ""Instances""                                              
msgstr[0] """"                                                                    
msgstr[1] """"                                                                    
msgstr[2] """"                                                                    
msgstr[3] """"                                                                    
msgstr[4] """"
}}}
But this appears nowhere so this will not be properly translated.
