This is about the size of a file. It makes no sense to express it in a 
unit with an unspecified number of bits! Besides in French all file, 
drive and media sizes are measured in 'kilooctet', 'mégaoctet', and 
so on, not in their equivalent in 'bytes'.

Now you could argue that the English string is wrong and technically you 
would probably be right. However I have never seen anyone measure data 
sizes in 'octets'. Besides Wikipedia itself says:

Indeed, I'll send a fix tomorrow (with luck we will have come to a 
solution on the next issue too).

I'm not sure people will understand it that way. We should probably 
change entirely and go for something like 'répertoire racine', 'rép. 
racine' or 'dossier racine'.
