Hello, I notice the same problem (updated to gitk 2.6.0 on openSUSE)

It is not only a problem with the German translation but also with others, I
additionally tried French and Japanese.

But even stranger, gitk starts correctly, when no command line arguments are
given in these locales (and the German locale), but with any command line
argument I tried (e.g. only 'gitk .') it crashes with the error message
mentioned above (they differ in the text 'bad menu entry index "Éditer la
vue..."', there the translated text of the locale is shown)

Furthermore I checked the translation files, there seems to be an
appropriate entry for "Edit view..." for all languages.
