If you haven't too many modifications, you should rather do it directly
in Pootle:

   - Go here: http://translate.koha-community.org
   - Click on 3.4
   - Select your language
   - Click on one .po file name
   - On the top right search box, enter the terms you're looking for
   - You arrive on a string containing this term
   - Edit it
   - Click on Next link, below your translated string: you will go to the
     next string containing the term

Koha staff .po file is such a large file that Pootle just can't merge a
new one with the existing one. I gave you admin permission. Now, if you
want, you can upload your staff .po file and ask to replace the existing
one. This way, it will work.
