[Bug 345587] Re: Not showing localized plural strings

[Milo Casagrande]

Looking at the code, looks like the ngettext function for handling
plural forms is not working as expected. Probably it is related to the
fact that the translations are not handled directly inside the ngettext
function, but postponed with the macro N_() and referenced inside the
ngettext function.

A consequences of this is also the fact the the POT file resulting from
Launchpad does not have plural forms in it. You can also see this here:

https://translations.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/jaunty/+source/fast-user-
switch-applet/+pots/fast-user-switch-applet/it/122/+translate

There is no plural form in that string, singular and plural are handled
separately in two different strings (they should be handled in one
string). This is also a problem for languages with more than 2 plural
forms.
