[bgo#682374] Gtranslator doesn't show error messages #45

Open mrkara opened 7 years ago

If the original strings contains a variable like %s, but user translates it as %d, GT doesn't show any warning message.

Also, if the linebreaks doesn't match in both original and translated strings, it doesn't warns about it.

Some commit migth have break this feature, since it was working in some previous versions.

Thanks!

Not displaying a warning is important (still there are dozens of QA tools that allow you to check that), but changing the priority and severity to its higher values is a bit too much isn't it?

Let developers do its job and prioritize as they see fit maybe, at the end they will be the ones fixing it :)

Still, I'm sure they will be happy to see patches coming fixing it, or investigating on which commit the warnings where no longer working ;)

This is the commit that broke the warning messages:

http://git.gnome.org/browse/gtranslator/commit/?id=bebb0f6fb9357890256f07fb45c1ebeba58a9b09

I don't know how to fix it, but I'm Ccing Garnacho, since he pushed this patch, so maybe he could help us.

Also, I downgrade the priority of this bug.
