Problem Summary | msgfmt specification defines behavior that does not exist |
Problem Text | The specification for msgfmt says that if the -o flag is used, "All domain directives and duplicate msgids in the .po file are ignored.". msgfmt does not behave this way. This behavior should not be required. This affects all LSB 1.3 runtime environments (IA32, IA64, PPC, etc) |

Review Resolution | Interpretation (INT) |
Review Conclusion | It was agreed that the specification is at odds with current behavior and that we should allow current behavior. An interpretation is therefore granted. |
