Hello,

in coreutils-8.25, src/stty.c, line 955, the string "" is selected for
translation. This is wrong, since the empty string has a special
meaning: it outputs general information about the translation. You can
see it by running "stty --help", which outputs "Last-Translator", among
other information.

This string should therefore be left untranslated.

Greetings,
Roland
