translations crashing plasma-discover (ar, el, tr, uk, zh_CN)

[Harald Sitter]

Hey,

Unfortunately this seems to have regressed for ar
https://websvn.kde.org/trunk/l10n-kf6/ar/messages/discover/libdiscover.po?r1=1681157&r2=1681568

Meanwhile el and zh_CN seem unresponsive to mails on their respective
mailing lists as well as here. Not sure what I can do about that short
of disabling the translations in discover, which does seem a bit
overkill.
