Hm, that would be a good idea to have that in squirrelmail anyway, even
if -locales is in sarge, so people upgrading from woody will know what's
up.

Note that a dialog for this type of changes is strongly disliked in
Debian (otherwise on woody->sarge you'd get tons of dialogs), but a
NEWS.Debian is suggested. Note that with the apt-listchanges package you
can have those entries mailed to you on upgrade, if you wish to read
them, and even if not, NEWS.Debian is the first file to look for if
something weird happened to a package. We _could_ also refer to
squirrelmail-locales in the squirrelmail package description, though I
don't know whether that's a good place to put a mention like this.

Reopening and retitling to this effect.
