Mix of translated and untranslated strings in error message

Reported by: goeran Assigned to: skvidal
Priority: major Milestone: Translation stuff and i18n
Component: yum Version:
Keywords: Cc:

Description

In __init__.py there is a message 

Cannot remove %s file %s

and it is properly marked for translation. However, the first %s will be replaced with an untranslated English word.

Marking the words to be filled in for translation is a minimal fix, but it isn't a good one. In general, it does not work to compose sentences in this way and have it work in an arbitrary language. A complete message needs to be translated as a unit.

Do you mean you have to send it to transifex, or the translation needs to be done by us translators? I (finally) got around to update the Swedish yum translation, but it seems the string is still there. Do I miss something?

I just took a look in both the 3.2.29 tar package and in the latest git, but as far as I can tell this bug remains in both. Where was this fixed?
