Hello

When I in emacs runs the 'Validate' command, on the sane-backends da.po=20
file, I get the folloving error:

cd ~/Oversaettelse/Sane-backends-1.0.15/
msgfmt --statistics -c -v -o /dev/null
/home/mogens/Oversaettelse/Sane-backends-1.0.15/sane-backends.da.po
/home/mogens/Oversaettelse/Sane-backends-1.0.15/sane-backends.da.po:1268:
'msgstr' is not a valid C format string, unlike 'msgid'. Reason: In the
directive number 1, the character 'b' is not a valid conversion specifier.

The message looks this way:

#: .tmp/microtek2.h:697
#, c-format
msgid "Balance factor for red. A value of 100% means no correction."
msgstr "Balancefaktor for roed. Vaerdien 100% betyder ingen korrektion."

I have asked in my Language-Team, and one said that there should not be=20
a '#, c-format' up front???????

I had 3 messages with errors like this, lines in da.po file : 1268=20
(above), 1277 and 1268, all with the same errormessage.

--=20
