While poking around the pg_basebackup code, I noticed there are a lot of error messages are missing the \n at the end. Most of them are very unlikely to happen, but in general I believe all error messages we print to stderr from those binaries should have a newline at the end.

Is that wrong? :)

Second -- if we were to backpatch something like the attached patch, is that going to cause issues for translators?

I think you missed the fact that PQerrorMessage's result will already
end with a newline.  So most (not all) of these look OK as they stand.

I think you missed the fact that PQerrorMessage's result will already

Ha, I knew there was something. But somehow I forgot about that one. I was wondering why nobody had found it before :)

And yeah, that leaves just the one error that I actually bumped into.  I'll go ahead and apply that one alone then.

Pah. Less coding on jetlag.

Thanks!
