I am using Void, AntiX and MX Linux distros in Turkish on my PCs. Void has
grub version 2.12. After install 'update-grub' script doesn't generate config
file if os-prober enabled. It works like a charm when I disable os-probing or
delete Turkish translation file(grub.mo). I have found an unwanted character
($) in c-format translation. I have started to correct translation errors and
joined to Turkish GRUB Translation team. But I want to report this situation
as bug, so it could be corrected. I think translation parsing is incorrect in
30_os-prober file.

Here is error message with faulty translation:

/etc/grub.d/30_os-prober: 317: printf: %2$: invalid directive

This are console messages:

# grub-install --version
grub-install (GRUB) 2.12


# update-grub  /// with faulty translation (distro supplied)

Its output will be used to detect bootable binaries on them and create new
boot entries.
