Hi,

In src/chown.c:79 (coreutils-9.5-pre1.fr.po), some part of the sting was moved 
to an untranslated argument:

      printf (_("\
Usage: %s [OPTION]... %s FILE...\n\
  or:  %s [OPTION]... --reference=RFILE FILE...\n\
"),
              program_name,
              chown_mode == CHOWN_CHOWN ? "[OWNER][:[GROUP]]" : "GROUP",
              program_name);

It prevents the translator from translating the "[OWNER][:[GROUP]]" and 
"GROUP" arguments.

Please replace them with _("[OWNER][:[GROUP]]") : _("GROUP").

Frederic
