I thought of changing the string so that it contains %s instead of @-
GNUCASH_LATEST_STABLE_VERSION-@: 

  "...use the latest release of GnuCash %s.")

This string would be the only tip-of-day that contains a "%s". So you would 
then also modify the tip-of-day display code to check for this single 
exception. All other strings are just translated, but this one after 
translation would be passed through sprintf as well.

Well, yes, unless you are up to try out the workaround described above :-)

Thanks for picking up the issue, tho :-)
