Bug ID: 1547166
           Summary: Belarusian translation plural form change request‏
           Product: Fedora Localization
         Component: l10n-requests
          Severity: low

Description of problem:

nplurals is wrong in the be.po for anaconda

Steps to Reproduce:

1. zanata-cli pull --url https://fedora.zanata.org/ --project anaconda
--project-version master --project-type  gettext -l be
2. look for Plural-Forms: in the received file be.po
3. Compare it with the string for "be" (Belarusian) at
http://docs.translatehouse.org/projects/localization-guide/en/latest/l10n/pl...

Actual results:

Plural-Forms: in the received file be.po is the following

"Plural-Forms: nplurals=4; plural=(n%10==1 && n%100!=11 ? 0 : n%10>=2 && "
"n%10<=4 && (n%100<10 || n%100>=20) ? 1 : 2);\n"

Expected results:

nplurals=3; plural=(n%10==1 && n%100!=11 ? 0 : n%10>=2 && n%10<=4 && (n%100<10
|| n%100>=20) ? 1 : 2);

Additional info:

nplurals=4 should be replaced with nplurals=3 in the be.po file

I successfully managed to run zanata-cli push and nplurals=3 now on server, and
zanata web UI presents 3 placeholders to translate plural forms, so it seems
everything OK now. Thanks. The bug can be closed.

Apparently not all is OK. Even though zanata web UI presents 3 placeholders to
translate plural forms, zanata-cli pull returns a misformatted po file:

[WARN] Marking as fuzzy: too many plural forms for text flow:
resId=1273d0db45545a9b269637da4d9d2889, doc=anaconda
[WARN] Marking as fuzzy: too many plural forms for text flow:
resId=0a7d55be9d12a369a6a8da0fb517fba4, doc=anaconda
[WARN] Marking as fuzzy: too many plural forms for text flow:
resId=6cc492bd732baf97c15d577104134a1b, doc=anaconda
[WARN] Marking as fuzzy: too many plural forms for text flow:
resId=e4c936ce2cbdbab6c303bdd0a6166ee8, doc=anaconda

because there are several msgstr[3] entries present whereas nplurals=3 in the
received .po file. When I remove the excess msgstr[3] entries and do zanata-cli
push again, it merges with the existing "invalid" .po on the server and nothing
changes.

I seem to need a person with admin rights to clean up the be.po for anaconda on
the server or whatever file or DB is under the hood there.

Besides I messed up with the .po header trying to update it, instead of
changing the initial 3 lines:

# Belarusian translations for anaconda.
# Copyright (C) 2018 Red Hat, Inc.
# This file is distributed under the same license as the anaconda package.

- it added my changes between the contributor copyright strings while
preserving the original boilerplate I intended to change.
