Hello, gentle maintainer.

This is a message from the Translation Project robot.

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

    https://translationproject.org/latest/libc/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/libc/

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/libc.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>

Hallo,

we have the following string to translate:
>     https://translationproject.org/latest/libc/de.po

#: elf/pldd.c:184
#, c-format
msgid "no valid %s/task entries"

The message got added with
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=commit;f=elf/pldd.c;h=1a4c27355e146b6d8cc6487b998462c7fdd1048f
and has a nice commit message. Looking at the source we replace %s with
/proc/<pid>.  That's not obvious for a translator, so we might translate
it wrong or misleading.

Would it be useful to add a translator's comment like:

%s will be replaced with /proc/<pid>, so please translate accordingly

Jochen

3 messages are related to openat(dir-as-fd, "task" ,

Perhaps in those 3 translation items could clarified that %s/task is 
like path.
