Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 On a related note,
 [https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/rosetta/forums/ru/default?filters%5Boriginal_id%5D=149601
 this] is not a correct usage of plural forms:
 {{{
 Singular: 1 plugin found
 Plural: Showing %s-%s of %s plugins
 }}}

 In some languages, the first form is used not just for 1, but also for 21,
 31, 41, etc. `1 plugin found` only makes sense for 1. For 21, 31, etc.,
 the number should be included in the string, but it's still the first
 form.

 Currently we can't use the single form and are forced to use the `Showing
 %s-%s of %s plugins` form in all cases.

 It could be fixed with something like this:
 {{{
 if ( $plugin_count > 1 ) {
         $message = sprintf( _n( 'Showing %s-%s of %s plugins', 'Showing
 %s-%s of %s plugins', $plugin_count ), ... );
 } else {
         $message = __( '1 plugin found' );
 }
 }}}
