[Localization] POT inconsistent against code for Record activity

[Sayamindu Dasgupta]

Hello,

The main issue here seems to be the fact that the location of the
Record repository has changed (earlier, the Record POT was fetched
from a SVN repository). Is this going the repository from where
further Record development will be happening in the future ? In that
case, I'll switch over to the new repository.

Thanks,
Sayamindu
