Yep. I also fixed a worrying number of @comando, @opzione, etc. on Weblate
(both in the 'guix' and 'packages' sets).
Weblate is pretty unfriendly, so this was tedious and I'm positive there are
some I missed. There's a comment warning translators not to do this, but it's
sadly useless since it's tied to *one* package—the odds of seeing it are
vanishing.
Julien, is there a way to make this warning more prominent/ubiquitous?
(Also, is there a translation workflow that avoids relying on Weblate or other
clunky tools?)
Run-time errors appear to be the only QA available for these strings, but this
failure mode is extreme. How about explicitly reporting the error & continuing
in English?
From what I remember, the code won't be elegant (we append to the translation,
then convert Texi, so falling back must be done by the caller or a new combo
procedure) but the result would be better.
Kind regards,
