#24091 closed Bug

compilemessages does not detect missing variables in djangojs.po files — at Initial Version

Reported by: Philipp Metzler Owned by: nobody
Component: Internationalization Version: 1.7
Severity: Normal Keywords:

Description

If django.po contains these lines:

msgid "This is a string with a %(variabel)d."
msgstr "Das ist eine Zeichenkette ohne Variable."

This error will occur when compiling with

django-admin.py compilemessages

a format specification for argument »items« doesn't exist in »msgstr«

BUT if a translation file for JavaScript djangojs.po contains the same lines no error will occur and this mistake will not be discovered until you stumble upon it by chance.
