Argparse in python3.2 includes two calls to ngettext to handle error messages, but ngettext is not imported. This causes NameError to be raised instead of ArgumentError.

Changing line 93 from:

    from gettext import gettext

to:

    from gettext import gettext, ngettext 

seems to fix the problem.

I added the import and calls in 1827a8ac9b18, so this report is strange.  What is your exact version and where did you get it?

It's argparse version 1.1 (1.1-1) from current Debian testing, Python 3.2 (r32:88445, Feb 20 2011, 18:43:30)

Confirmed.  It’s a Debian-specific problem, please use “reportbug python3.2” to report it to them.
