After doing some msgmerge on is.po I think omitting these line numbers might be the wrong move. msgmerge can get very confused, and mark translations fuzzy across unrelated files, presumably that wouldn't happen if they were there. I haven't tested it though. CC-ing the gettext maintainer, maybe he has some insights. The gettext manual doesn't discuss this as far as I can see. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
