After parsing the src.rpm, I think I found the origin of the bug: the
.pot available in Transifex is the official .pot plus a patch
from RedHat, and yet, all the untranslated strings like "Network Port",
"Process Domain" came from this patch. So I suppose that the patch is
buggy or "patch" (the programm) can't manage some locales.
