Strange singular/plural messages in 2.33.90

While translating 2.33.90 to Swedish, I came across this code from readelf.c:

    warn (ngettext ("debuginfod: Corrupt note: only %ld byte remains, "
                    "not enough for a full note\n",
                    "Corrupt note: only %ld bytes remain, "
                    "not enough for a full note\n",
                    data_remaining),
          (long) data_remaining);

It seems strange you would want the "debuginfod" prefix only in the
case of singular, while the plural form has no such prefix.  I suspect
that is a mistake.

The code snippet appears twice.
