Hi Enrico,

On 3 June you committed a change to translate menu item labels.

This is the wrong thing to do because:

1. If loaded from user config files the strings are written by users and should not be translated

2. If loaded from a config file with the old [build-settings] section and no [build-menu] section (all but Latex IIRC) then the labels are created in the code of build_load_menu_group and are already translated there.

3. The Latex menu labels won't be translated because the strings don't exist in code anywhere. The msgids are therefore commented out in the po files.

AFAICT the change won't do anything, but it exposes a bug in gettext that returns a large message if its passed an empty string, and empty strings are explicitly allowed in the configuration to hide a menu item.

What problem were you trying to fix?

Cheers Lex
