Yes, the "production" run also issues that error, as you can check in the build logs here: https://www-master.debian.org/build-logs/webwml/wml_run.log (if you go to the directory index you might find other useful stuff to look at, if you're curious ;)) Looking into the file, line 554 reveals that there is a msgid "" line missing, probably removed accidentally. You can add that yourself, or ask KÃ¥re to do it who is the danish translation coordinator. Hope that helps, Rhonda
