New German PO file for 'opcodes' (version 2.41.90)

[Translation Project Robot]

Hello, gentle maintainer.

This is a message from the Translation Project robot.

A revised PO file for textual domain 'opcodes' has been submitted
by the German team of translators.  The file is available at:

    https://translationproject.org/latest/opcodes/de.po

(We can arrange things so that in the future such files are automatically
e-mailed to you when they arrive.  Ask at the address below if you want this.)

All other PO files for your package are available in:

    https://translationproject.org/latest/opcodes/

Please consider including all of these in your next release, whether
official or a pretest.

Whenever you have a new distribution with a new version number ready,
containing a newer POT file, please send the URL of that distribution
tarball to the address below.  The tarball may be just a pretest or a
snapshot, it does not even have to compile.  It is just used by the
translators when they need some extra translation context.

The following HTML page has been updated:

    https://translationproject.org/domain/opcodes.html

If any question arises, please contact the translation coordinator.

Thank you for all your work,

                                The Translation Project robot, in the
                                name of your translation coordinator.
                                <coordinator@translationproject.org>

I noticed that the term "z/Architecture" has been translated to 
"z/-Architektur". It would be preferable not to translate this term or 
at least use "z/Architektur" (without hyphen), although the latter is 
uncommon. Note that the respective string apparently won't get 
translated in "objdump --help", as the message text is in the "opcodes" 
and not in the "binutils" domain.

Is there a way to mark or annotate terms within message texts as not to 
translate? I checked the GNU gettext documentation [1], which suggests 
to use a placeholder for URLs [2]. This would have worked for this case, 
if the subject string would not be in a table.

[1] GNU gettext, section "Preparing Program Sources":
https://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/html_node/Sources.html

[2] GNU gettext, section "Preparing Program Sources", subsection 
"Preparing Translatable Strings":
https://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/html_node/Preparing-Strings.html

Thanks and regards,
Jens

I fixed the German translation, just as you suggested. If you find more
typos or other mistakes, please tell me.

The developers could insert a /* TRANSLATORS: ... */ comment above the
line, relying on the translators to see this message. This often works.

If it doesn't, I'd use the placeholder variant you suggested. More
generally, I also recomment placeholders for messages that often repeat,
such as "option '%s' requires an argument", as this prevents the
translators from introducing typos in the option name.

I am going to apply the patch below to the mainline sources...

Thanks!

Btw. as mentioned earlier I could not manage to get this string and 
others translated in "objdump --help". My layman understanding is that 
this is due to the strings being in the "opcodes" message catalog and 
objdump is using the "binutils" one:

$ LANG=de_DE.utf8 gdb --args objdump --help
...
(gdb) b bindtextdomain
(gdb) run
...
Breakpoint 1, __bindtextdomain 
(domainname=domainname@entry=0x2aa0015b262 "binutils", 
dirname=dirname@entry=0x2aa0015b236 
"/home/jremus/temp/binutils-gcc/share/locale") at bindtextdom.c:320

Thanks and regards,
Jens
