Dependencies for string overwriting don't seem to work

[juergmessmer]

If I make a placeholder string in a widget, that can be overwritten by another plugin or for a special site, I expect that a string (key) added to a plugin2 - which depends on plugin1 - is displayed instead of the original one. But that doesn't seem to work - even if I use the same path / dir structure in both plugins.

Plugin1
placeholder.string-key: ""

Plugin2
info.yml
dependencies:
plugins/plugin1: "*"
placeholder.string-key: "My overwrite string"

My tests show the following:

plugins/«p»/modules/«t»/«m»/lang/«l».ini can be overridden by site/modules/«t»/«m»/lang/«l».ini but not by site/lang/«l».ini. I don’t know if that is supposed to be correct…

I havn't had any problems with this anymore. I guess we close it for now?
