           Summary: Hardly translatable word puzzle in
                    kdev-control-flow-graph
           Product: kdevplatform
           Version: git master
          Platform: Unlisted Binaries
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdevelop-bugs@kdevelop.org
        ReportedBy: bald@smail.ee


Version:           git master
OS:                Linux

Control flow plugin translation file
(http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/l10n-kde4/templates/messages/kdereview/kdevcontrolflowgraph.pot?revision=1210218&view=markup)
 includes two strings which are very hard to translate, as apparently they
belong together:

23    #: controlflowgraphnavigationcontext.cpp:59
24    msgid "Uses of"
25    msgstr ""
26    
27    #: controlflowgraphnavigationcontext.cpp:59
28    msgid "from"
29    msgstr ""

Looking at source code
(http://quickgit.kde.org/?p=kdev-control-flow-graph.git&a=blob&h=9a255735b5c3e4dddb223 \
ce217b8c29903dc560c&hb=a12fc6c38413957e46a7513ef0f1309cf0ddd7c3&f=controlflowgraphnavigationcontext.cpp),
 it is evident it's the case of bad coding for translators - see "Common
mistakes: Word Puzzles"
(http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Localization/i18n_Mistakes#Pitfall_.232:_Word_Puzzles).


So, could you fix the sentence so it'll be something like "Uses of %1 from %2"?

Reproducible: Didn't try
