That's what I thought but I'm not sure what is brought in the rhel5.po. The
difficulty to verify comes also from similar strings and fuzzy entries so it's
not quite clear to me if everything is ok. Anyway using the script snippet I
sent earlier works well enough and the diff contains only the translated items
which is easier to verify.

Thanks,
Alexander.
