[Bug 1035544] Re: "%(count)d proprietary driver%(plural)s in use." is not translatable for some languages

This is from:
 Located in ../softwareproperties/gtk/SoftwarePropertiesGtk.py:1343 
The "driver%s" solution is fundamentally broken, needs proper plural support, see: https://live.gnome.org/TranslationProject/DevGuidelines/Plurals

Also there are some strings in that file that need to be marked for
translation:

self.label_driver_action.set_label("Applying changes...")
description = "Using {} from {}".format(pkg.candidate.summary, pkg.shortname)
self.label_driver_action.set_label("You need to restart the computer to complete the driver changes.")

Title:
  "%(count)d proprietary driver%(plural)s in use." is not translatable
  for some languages

Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  Triaged
Status in “software-properties” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The translation template contains the following string:
    %(count)d proprietary driver%(plural)s in use.

  Japanese doesn't distinguish plurals, so we should ignore "%(plural)s" on translation.
  However, Rosetta doesn't accept the translation without this variable.
