Description Alexander Potashev 2021-04-04 22:43:48 UTC 
SUMMARY
The order of messages in POT templates generated from JSON files is unstable. Maybe sorting by JSON file path would help.

(Hint: "find" returns a list of randomly ordered paths, see https://invent.kde.org/sysadmin/l10n-scripty/-/blob/master/handle_json_files.sh#L33)
