Something like this should fix the behavior:

• gniibe added a project: Bug Report.Dec 21 2022, 3:07 AM

I pushed a similar fix last week: rE885a287a57cf060b4c
and gnupg has a hack to fix it for oler libgpg-error versions.

I think that there is no need for a ARGPARSE_OPT_HEADER condition because I can't imagine a case where map_fixed_string would take an empty string and map it to something different.

Ah, I had not done git pull for a week, and I didn't realize your patch.

So, I will close the bug report. But to share the information (among translators), let us keep the ticket for a while as Testing.

Actually, one translator misunderstood it were a new feature (to let people know the translation work).

Fixed in 1.47.
