[kde-edu]: [Fwd: Re: kturtle on linux live cd ?]

Tue Nov 4 19:19:17 CET 2008

I am forwarding this to the kdeedu list, where Albert and Burkhart can 
give us their take on this translation issues.
In summary, there appears to be an issue triggered by the code using 
i18nc instead of i18n. I am not sure what these functions do, so what is 
the recommended way, guys?

Regards,
Mauricio Piacentini

Just an update. I've looked at this. Problem seems to be with the i18nc
methods. For the translation of command we use the ki18nc method. Replacing
this method with ki18n (without c, so without context) works fine.

Cies, Mauricio: any idea?
