Re: Split messages (i18n) in sharutils.

[Bruce Korb]

Hi Jan,

Is this from the alpha release ("-pre1"), or the current release?
I *just* this weekend cleaned up a whole bunch of those, which
is not to say I did not miss any :). I believe the current message
reads:

"Please unpack part '`cat ${lock_dir}/seq`' next."

I ought to tell translators to consider all the text between
"part" and "next" as an ASCII arabic number....How do I
do that? :)

Thanks - Bruce
