Some strings in builtincmds.po are not replaced

[gialloporpora]

Dear all,
I am translating po files for Ubiquity. I have not already finished to
translate all strings (80%) but I have noted that some stings are not
recognized also they are translated in po file:
http://twitpic.com/99f3v

the po file is here:
http://github.com/gialloporpora/ubiquity-it/blob/7f195ef1addae5f3c5eaca24f9a0c08d19ddf7a6/it/builtincmds.po
I have checked and retranslated the file three times, but the result
is the same, the string in preview is showed in english.
Somebody could help me to find where I miss something ?

Sandro,

This is most likely a problem with the template's msgid itself. I apologize for the frustration this must have caused.

I'm away from my regular computer for about 24 hours here... I'll make sure to check this when I get back to it.

Thanks, and I'm glad to see the great progress you've made with the Italian localization!

Trank you very much for your very fast reply :-)
No problem, I ham happy to know that it is not a problem of my
localization, now I try to complete all the localization and after I
submit it to the MozillaItalia team for QA.

That sounds great. :) Again, I'll let you know when I look into that string and figure out what the problem is.

Sandro,

It's looking like this is a pretty hairy issue but doesn't have to do
with the msgid's or localization infrastructure per se. To see what I
mean, take a look at the command list... I believe your command
description is correctly translated there.

What seems to be going on is that, in those cases of commands where
there is no preview so a description and help are displayed instead,
this is constructed in a method called previewDefault in
CmdUtils.CreateCommand. This function seems to be keeping the older
versions of the strings, as the localization happens after this
process. I tried to play around with it but, given the tricky roller
coaster ride that commands currently go through to become initialized,
I couldn't track down the right place to fix it.

This is indeed a serious bug for localization but I'm not sure if we
can fix it before 0.5... I also would not consider it a blocker.

Sandro, for the time being, please continue to localize as you have
done. There was nothing wrong with your builtincmds.po file.

Filed as ticket #808.

No heartbreaks, though. ;)

Sandro,

I believe satyr was able to fix this before the 0.5 release, in fact.
Could you verify if it's working for you now?

We'd love to get your Italian localization in a release in the near
future! Just let us know when it's ready to go. :)
