[Yum-devel] [PATCH] Allow correct translation of pkgAdded message

Hi yum team,

concatenation of or substitution in strings is in general a bad idea
regarding translations. Remember, not all languages form sentences as
simple as English. In yum's output.py there is such a problem which
leads to a non-perfect German translation and supposedly even wrong
translation in other languages.

I attached a patch with a way to fix it. Although this imposes slightly
more work for developers and translators (just slightly, since you can
just copy and paste) it allows for proper translation.

Thank you for your efforts!

Cheers,
Hendrik
