I don't see what's wrong in it either. At the same time I noticed that Robert just made the same changes in trunk as you proposed. Maybe the proper next step is to simply drop the 14_seconds_combo.patch.

Hi Gunnar

I think the other patch had some merit by reducing the number of strings a bit, but given that here we work with fixed number values, this solution should not pose much problem from translation POV.

I have been thinking on the ngettext problem, and my best guess is that this happened because the a-l-m code runs inside the g-c-c process, but uses its own translation domain. This is when ngettext does not work, as it uses the default translation domain of the main process - g-c-c here.
So you would need dngettext() to explicitly set the translation domain: http://www.valadoc.org/#!api=glib-2.0/GLib.dngettext

Aha, that may be it.

Sorry to disturb, but when the po files will be updated?
Bug #1375598 required a po-update. When run "debconf-updatepo", an error of non-ASCII is prompted.

I think the PO templates are up to date already. This bug is about making the translated strings actually used.

#1375598 is about some strings not translatable, such as "Add application...", due to miss of "_(" in the code.
The code has been fixed, but the strings are not show on Rossata. So I suppose the po files need an update.
