Deployment Type

Self-hosted

NetBox Version

v4.3.1

Python Version

3.12

Steps to Reproduce

On compiling the german language there is the following error:

$ ./manage.py compilemessages --locale de 
...
Execution of msgfmt failed: /opt/netbox/netbox/translations/de/LC_MESSAGES/django.po:11082: number of format specifications in 'msgid' and 'msgstr' does not match
...

For me it worked, that i escaped the singel "%" with "%%" in line 11081 and 11082.

Expected Behavior

The following command should run without a error.

$ ./manage.py compilemessages --locale de

Observed Behavior

Execution of msgfmt failed: /opt/netbox/netbox/translations/de/LC_MESSAGES/django.po:11082: number of format specifications in 'msgid' and 'msgstr' does not match

Why are you running compilemessages?

For me it worked, that i escaped the singel "%" with "%%" in line 11081 and 11082.

Attempting to escape the % in the source string alters the text displayed in the UI.

I need to change some german translations for local usage.
Like "Asset-Tag" to "Inventarnummer" and similar.

The compilemessage was the best way for me to edit only one file.
It worked over a year now and the latest update resulted to the error.
