The above text is obviously from "src/using/docks.xml", which has been modified on 2009-01-12 (one week ago). That's why it has been updated... > That is, before the text started on it's own line, now it's with the > msgid. ... but I can't explain this particular difference. I tried touch src/using/docks.xml && make -f Makefile.GNU po/de/using/docks.po and get grep -B1 'See also' po/de/using/docks.po msgid "" "See also <link ... >Dialogs and Docking</link>" so here's no such difference. Which gettext version do you use? Maybe different gettext versions produce different output?

Hmm, I do not work directly on the SVN working copy, instead I have another copy on "/tmp" and commit only files I have edited. But we can't expect everybody to work this way, so it seems that we really have a problem here... Bye, Ulf
