I gave my .po files to my translators to translate.  They translated "English" to "Anglais".  But in the ddk usr/share/cupsddk/po files "English" has already been translated as "French".  It would have been good if ppdc had flagged that the strings were in conflict and exited with an error.

Hmm, I'm thinking it would be better to just omit these strings from the .po file that is created...

Will do something about this for the single-language case, but the new multi-language PPD files will make this a non-issue...
