------------------------------------------+---------------------------------
 In sugar-toolkit, the xgettext invocation (which generates the POT files)
 is hardcoded to look for _ as translateable marker, and hence all strings
 with _p get ignored.

 Is there any specific reason you are using _p ? If there is any reason, we
 can try to figure out how to make sugar-toolkit understand _p, and if not,
 it would be best to revert to _ instead of _p
