Bug Description
I'm having problems translating the string: _Show %'d of:
at https:/
When I copy-paste the original text, it will result in the error:
'msgstr' is not a valid C format string, unlike 'msgid'. Reason: In the directive number 1, the character '&' is not a valid conversion specifier.
Looks like Rosetta encodes the ' as HTML character. I expected that the string would be: _Show %'d of:
When I download the .po wil and open it with poedit it shows the correct string.

The string in the template is invalid; %& is clearly not a valid component of a format string. The project maintainer will need to correct it before the string is translatable.
