Bug Description

When running the export queue script, occasionally duplicate message definitions cause crashes while running msgfmt. This happened recently for zope/ja.mo, for instance.

  File "/srv/launchpad.net/production/launchpad/cronscripts/../lib/canonical/launchpad/scripts/po_export_queue.py", line 99, in get_contents
    return compiler.compile(po_contents)
  File "/srv/launchpad.net/production/launchpad/lib/canonical/launchpad/components/poexport.py", line 573, in compile
    raise MOCompilationError("PO file compilation failed:\n" + stdout)
MOCompilationError: PO file compilation failed:
<stdin>:6562: duplicate message definition
<stdin>:5757: ...this is the location of the first definition
/usr/bin/msgfmt: found 1 fatal error

This problem is already fixed, but a cached export was still showing it.

We forced a cache refresh in all pofiles on launchpad and this problem has gone as was already fixed some time ago.

I don't know if this is a regression.

I have exported the evolution po file

http://launchpadlibrarian.net/22978751/po_evolution-2.26-ro.po

Checking the file I got.

$ msgfmt -v -o /dev/null -c po_evolution-2.26-ro-error.po
po_evolution-2.26-ro-error.po:24173: duplicate message definition...
po_evolution-2.26-ro-error.po:7975: ...this is the location of the first definition
msgfmt: found 1 fatal error

This should be an important bug as due to this error you can not create the .mo file for evolution
