Thanks for the report.  However, translation bugs should be sent to the
appropriate translation team, not upstream.  I'm cc'ing the addresses
listed in de.po.

While at it, I noticed another bug in the de.po file:

#. TRANSLATORS: The placeholder indicates the bug-reporting address
#. for this package.  Please add _another line_ saying
#. "Report translation bugs to <...>\n" with the address for translation
#. bugs (typically your translation team's web or email address).
#: lib/version-etc.c:245 src/main.c:1474
#, c-format
msgid ""
"\n"
"Report bugs to: %s\n"
msgstr ""

There is no translation, which means 'grep --help' will not output the
proper translation bug address when using the German locale.
