--- Begin Message ---Source: gcl27 Version: 2.7.1-3 Severity: normal Since the last update you have the follwoing sentence in Debconf: You can locally override this choice by setting the GCL_ANSI environment variable to any string but \"no\" for the ANSI build, and to \"no\" for the CLtL1 build, e.g. GCL_ANSI=t gcl27. 1) This sentence is not clear. If I want to override this choice I can set *any* string except "no"? So foobar, yes, nein … will override it? 2) The option "no" is *both* for the ANSI build *and* the CLtL1 build? I *strongly* suggest running your template over debian-l10n-english for a quick round of additional review and than issue a call for translation updates, I can help you on the latter if you are short on time, especially since the freeze is in progress. -- System Information: Debian Release: trixie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to de_DE.UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) -- Dr. Helge Kreutzmann deb...@helgefjell.de Dipl.-Phys. http://www.helgefjell.de/debian.php 64bit GNU powered gpg signed mail preferred Help keep free software "libre": http://www.ffii.de/
