Project:      Drupal
Version:      4.7.0-beta6
Component:    locale.module

I imported the general.pot from cvs in a po catalog file using poEdit, I
translated 166 (of the 202) terms, left 36 untranslated, and imported my
po file, selecting "Strings in the uploaded file replace existing ones,
new ones are added")


The translation was successfully imported. There are 169 newly created
translated strings and 0 strings were updated.
So far so good. It worked. The number 169 (instead of 166) was probably
because of the plurals.
Then I edited 1 of the 166 translated terms in poEdit and imported the
po file again. Now import tells me:


The translation was successfully imported. There are 36 newly created
translated strings and 0 strings were updated.
Drupal still uses the old unedited translated term.
I think it adds the untranslated terms and ignores the edited
translated terms. 


Except if my procedure is not the right way to do it. Please someone
verify.
