There are more, e.g. "Sort options" and "Show me" https://support.mozilla.org/cs/questions/all?show=all

According to Joergen, e-mails are affected too. https://support.mozilla.org/forums/contributors/711921

Something went terribly wrong during the export I guess. If I look at https://viewvc.svn.mozilla.org/vc/projects/sumo/locales/cs/LC_MESSAGES/django.po?r1=150343&r2=150437, I see a lot of "red".

Hi,

when I look to the msgstr strings I see that some strings contain two string texts, one empty text and one with the translation. I think the program reads the empty string text and thinks the string is still untranslated. That is even true for some msgid strings, see:

https://viewvc.svn.mozilla.org/vc/projects/sumo/locales/dsb/LC_MESSAGES/django.po?r1=150437&r2=150455&pathrev=150455

Thanks for flagging this!

@mythmon - can you please look at this as it's affecting all locales? Thanks!

Yap. I also think so. I have pulled the locales and tried in my locale kitsune server. Seems like, this commit of SVN may broke the localization.

I think I've fixed this. It looks like we weren't extracting strings correctly from the code base, so a lot of strings got removed from our localization templates. I fixed our extraction problems. All the example links in this bug work for me now.

Actually, I'd like to keep this bug open until PR 2826 [0] gets merged. This is fixed temporarily; PR 2826 is the code changes to make this permanent.
