Bug#476348: gnome-doc-utils: Please provide command line switch to limit line length in pot files

[Helge Kreutzmann]

Package: gnome-doc-utils
Version: 0.12.2-1
Severity: wishlist

When I run  
xml2po -e -o foo.pot foo.xml
I get a pot file where there are no line breaks within the msgid
fields, i.e. they might run over several lines.

Example:
msgid "this is a long line with is broken down on several "
"lines to ease work in an editor".

instead of

msgid "this is a long line with is not broken down on several lines to make live harder in an editor".



Ideally this would be modelled along msgmerge(1) command line option.
