$ msgfmt -c --statistics Desktop/fr.po 
Desktop/fr.po:147: message catalog has plural form translations...
Desktop/fr.po:7: ...but header entry lacks a "plural=EXPRESSION"
attribute Try using the following, valid for French:
                 "Plural-Forms: nplurals=2; plural=(n > 1);\n"
Desktop/fr.po:7: ...but header entry lacks a "nplurals=INTEGER"
attribute Try using the following, valid for French:
                 "Plural-Forms: nplurals=2; plural=(n > 1);\n"
msgfmt: found 2 fatal errors

PLEASE can all proof-readers on i18n lists *insist* that all PO files
being processed for review are always checked with 'msgfmt -c
--statistics' at every stage?

These kind of errors kill the build, so it gets really annoying to
developers.

I've manually fixed the fr.po file for emdebian-crush.
