Hi,
 In hindi translation for katepart.pot for following pair of strings,

#: part/katedialogs.cpp:517
#, c-format
msgid "% of view width"
msgstr "\u0926\u0943\u0936\u094d\u092f
\u091a\u094c\u0921\u093c\u093e\u0908 % \u0915\u0940"

(ignore the unicode escape sequence)
I get below error

bash-2.05b$ ms -cv katepart.po 
katepart.po:1179: 'msgstr' is not a valid C format string, unlike
'msgid'. Reason: The character that terminates the directive number 1
is not a valid conversion specifier.
msgfmt: found 1 fatal error

I checked in other language translations , they are translated
similarly & i get same error, I initially have 0.11, then upgraded to
0.12 & now tried 0.13, still getting same error.

Regards,
Karunakar
