语言包格式错误引起组件崩溃

最近在修正一些运行时错误中，发现了类似的错误模式，例如

打开SYSADMIN后，教师面板无法进入，检查lms/log发现

1	File "/tmp/mako_lms/instructor/instructor_dashboard_2/course_info.html.py", line 141, in render_body

2	link_end='</a>'

3	KeyError: u' link_start '

用户注册后不能发送邮件，也不能跳转到注册成功页面，而邮件却已正确配置。检查lms/log发现

共同的错误提示KeyError。在和社区开发者进行探讨后，认为是模板的问题，于是@wwj718修改了模板文件使组件可运行并提交commit到github。而edX社区的开发者提示这是语言包问题。

1	This looks to me like a translator added spaces into the format placeholder, turning {link_start} into { link_start }. The fix is to remove the spaces in the translation. Removing the placeholder names as you have done will make it impossible to translate this string in the future.

2

3	Can you double-check your translation files to see if there are spaces in the translated string?

4

5	:-1: on merging this change.

7

8	PS, the command i18n_tool validate will find errors with all translation files you have, so you can correct them if you wish. On master, all translation files pass this check.

检查mako.po文件发现，的确是翻译者在变量中加入了错误的空格导致：

{link_start} -> { link_start }
{platform_name} -> { platform_name }

凡是错误加入空格的地方,涉及的组件都会出现KeyError错误。

一劳永逸的做法，我们已在transifex修正了目前发现的几十处类似语言包错误并确认审核。重新下载编译语言包即可修正此类错误。
