Description Spiros Georgaras 2005-11-02 13:13:08 UTC 
Version:           0.9.3 (using KDE 3.4.3 Level "b" , SUSE 10.0 UNSUPPORTED)
Compiler:          Target: i586-suse-linux
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.13-15-default

Messages like
" %1: %2 new , %3 displayed"
where
%1: news server
%2: num of messages
%3: num of messages

does not work for my language (Greek -el), as "1 new" and "2 new" are different.
Same thing goes for "1 displayed" and "2 displayed"

This should apply for many more languages having plural forms.

I think this should be fixed (maybe by cutting the message in half and using plural form notation)

BTW it should be " %1: %2 new, %3 displayed" (there should be no space char between "new" and the comma char)

This is in:

knarticlemanager.cpp

void KNArticleManager::updateStatusString()

Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this project has been unmaintained for many years so I am closing this bug.
