Sorry to bother you again, but I have another question.
The file that you sent me has no Plural-Forms line...

According to
http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/html_mono/gettext.html#Plural-forms
it seems that Japanese has no distinction between singular and plural
form.
The correct Plural-Forms should therefore be:

  "Plural-Forms: nplurals=1; plural=0;\n"

However, do I understand correctly that, if I add this Plural-Forms
line to the ja.po file, only msgstr[0] translations will be selected
(and msgstr[1] will never be used)?

If this is indeed the case, maybe the following translations


#. TRANSLATORS: %{plist} is a comma-separated list of %{npkgs} packages to be pinned or put on hold.
#: lib/apt-listbugs/logic.rb:451
msgid ""
"The following package will be pinned or on hold:\n"
" %{plist}\n"
"Are you sure?"
msgid_plural ""
"The following %{npkgs} packages will be pinned or on hold:\n"
" %{plist}\n"
"Are you sure?"
msgstr[0] ""
"以下のパッケージがピン止め、または保留されます:\n"
" %{plist}\n"
"よろしいですか "
msgstr[1] ""
"以下の %{npkgs} 個のパッケージがピン止め、または保留されます:\n"
" %{plist}\n"
"よろしいですか "

[...]

#. TRANSLATORS: %{nbugs} is the number of bugs found for package %{packg}.
#: lib/apt-listbugs/logic.rb:579
msgid "%{packg}(%{nbugs} bug)"
msgid_plural "%{packg}(%{nbugs} bugs)"
msgstr[0] "%{packg}(%{nbugs} 個)"
msgstr[1] "%{packg}(%{nbugs} 個)"


should be changed to


#. TRANSLATORS: %{plist} is a comma-separated list of %{npkgs} packages to be pinned or put on hold.
#: lib/apt-listbugs/logic.rb:451
msgid ""
"The following package will be pinned or on hold:\n"
" %{plist}\n"
"Are you sure?"
msgid_plural ""
"The following %{npkgs} packages will be pinned or on hold:\n"
" %{plist}\n"
"Are you sure?"
msgstr[0] ""
"以下の %{npkgs} 個のパッケージがピン止め、または保留されます:\n"
" %{plist}\n"
"よろしいですか "

[...]

#. TRANSLATORS: %{nbugs} is the number of bugs found for package %{packg}.
#: lib/apt-listbugs/logic.rb:579
msgid "%{packg}(%{nbugs} bug)"
msgid_plural "%{packg}(%{nbugs} bugs)"
msgstr[0] "%{packg}(%{nbugs} 個)"




Do you agree?
If not, please elaborate and suggest a better strategy...

Thanks again for your time!
