Dear Debian maintainer, On Sunday, September 08, 2013, I notified you of the beginning of a review process concerning debconf templates for apt-listdifferences.
The debian-l10n-english contributors have now reviewed these templates, and the final proposed changes are attached to this update to the original bug report. Please review the suggested changes, and if you have any objections, let me know in the next 3 days. However, please try to avoid uploading apt-listdifferences with these changes right now. The second phase of this process will begin on Wednesday, October 02, 2013, when I will coordinate updates to translations of debconf templates. The existing translators will be notified of the changes: they will receive an updated PO file for their language. Simultaneously, a general call for new translations will be sent to the debian-i18n mailing list. Both these calls for translations will request updates to be sent as individual bug reports. That will probably trigger a lot of bug reports against your package, but these should be easier to deal with. The call for translation updates and new translations will run until about Wednesday, October 23, 2013. Please avoid uploading a package with fixed or changed debconf templates and/or translation updates in the meantime. Of course, other changes are safe. Please note that this is an approximative delay, which depends on my own availability to process this work and is influenced by the fact that I simultaneously work on many packages. Around Thursday, October 24, 2013, I will contact you again and will send a final patch summarizing all the updates (changes to debconf templates, updates to debconf translations and new debconf translations). Again, thanks for your attention and cooperation. --

Template: apt-listdifferences/initialize Type: boolean Default: true _Description: Initialize the apt-listdifferences database now? The source packages database for apt-listdifferences can be initialized now. Depending on your Internet connection, this may take a while, but it will also provide immediate functionality for the tool. . If you do not choose this option, apt-list-differences will instead become functional slowly over time as more and more reference source packages get added to its database when they are first seen. Template: apt-listdifferences/purge Type: boolean Default: false _Description: Remove the apt-listdifferences database? The apt-listdifferences database is currently still present on disk. You can save a lot of space by removing it now, but if you ever plan to reinstall apt-listdifferences, the data will need to be downloaded again.
