Translated string with unamed arguments

[Marc Garcia]

When executing django/bin/make-messages.py on newforms-admin branch, next warnings are displayed:

errors happened while running xgettext on options.py
./contrib/admin/options.py:430: warning: 'msgid' format string with unnamed arguments cannot be properly localized:
                                         The translator cannot reorder the arguments.
                                         Please consider using a format string with named arguments,
                                         and a mapping instead of a tuple for the arguments.

Lines corrected, make-messages now doesn't complain.

[Brian Rosner]

(In [7874]) newforms-admin: Fixed #7564 -- Make position argument string interpolation use keywords instead. Works better for translators and get rid of make-messages.py warnings. Thanks Marc Garcia for the report and permon for the patch.

Milestone 1.0 alpha deleted

[baokham.chau@…]

System: Macbook Pro, Lion OS, Django 1.4, Python 2.7.3, xgettext 0.18.1

Still seeing the error:

Error: errors happened while running xgettext on models.py
./myproject/models.py:177: warning: 'msgid' format string with unnamed arguments cannot be properly localized:

The translator cannot reorder the arguments.
Please consider using a format string with named arguments,
and a mapping instead of a tuple for the arguments.

This happens because xgettext will still throw a warning, which will be catch by the "if errors:" block in makemessages.py. Inside the block, we will then raise an exception, regardless of whether or not this error is a fatal error or not. Suggest fix to at least look at the error level (info,warning, error, etc.) and only raise an exception if the error is fatal.

If I understand it well, you are asking here to not raise an exception when xgettext emits warning only. Then please create a new ticket with this specific request, do not reopen old fixed issues.
