Please unblock package mate-utils
Since upload of itstool 2.0.4-1 (see #919058), mate-utils did FTBFS. The
reason for this is that itstool changed its behaviour and since 2.0.4-1
throws an exception if XML parsing fails by some reason. (A better
behaviour would be: print a warning and silently go on).
However, as itstool hasn't seen any change for a while in Debian, I
worked on a work-around for mate-utils. I could identify the one specifc
msgstr that caused the FTBFS, so I made it "fuzzy" and with that,
mate-utils now builds.
+ * debian/patches:
+ + Add 1001_fix-gsearchtool-pt-help-translation.patch.
+ Fix FTBFS caused by itstool. (Closes: #920408, #922734).
This is the simple patch that works around the issue:

I am aware that mate-utils 1.20.2-2 never migrated to testing because of
this, so I ask for a specific exception here to unblock mate-utils. Thanks!
