Besides being very carefull about the %s's I'm also doing a check with
'msgfmt -c' before running the translate script. However I've noticed
sometimes it doesn't yelp even when there is a mismatch and is not in a
fuzzy string.

I guess I can apply that patch to my branch now and start using it
right away.

Did it and it doesn't cry when I feed it a bad .po, check my comment in
bug please.

Using pootle is cumbersome for me, I find the workflow more straight
making my changes locally. Also why pootle claims 100% spanish
translation when there are near 1000 fuzzy strings?

I'm not the only translator so I guess I'll be shouting in
koha-translate.

But let me ask another one: why are we using this method? Cannot we
rely on git doing the merging? I've found some of the people working on
spanish translation is somewhat self cutted out from mailing list and
are hard to reach.
