Once this problem has been solved and the pot creation works again, then please
consider to initialize a new domain at translationproject.org (e.g. named
parted-man)to publish the pot file. Would be nice if we had the new i18n stuff
prior to the next release. Probably we will get a new version in the nearest
future: I've got a new pot template for the UI strings yesterday (and sent the
updated file back), so I assume next month or so...?

Please ship the attached translation with the next parted version. The po file
is based on the current pot file in Git (/parted/doc/C/parted-new.pot). Seems it
contains strings from both parted.8 and partprobe.8, so no extra file for the
latter is needed. Should this behavior change due to a different workflow for
creating the template, I can split the po file again, no problem.

Best Regards,
Mario
