Package: wodim Severity: wishlist Tags: patch l10n Please note that this is an update. To simplify, I included all issues (even those already reported).
Dear wodim maintainer,
the manpage-l10n project maintains a large number of translations of
man pages both from a large variety of sources (including PACKAGE) as
well for a large variety of target languages.
During their work translators notice different possible issues in the
original (english) man pages. Sometimes this is a straightforward
typo, sometimes a hard to read sentence, sometimes this is a
convention not held up and sometimes we simply do not understand the
original.
We use several distributions as sources and update regularly (at
least every 2 month). This means we are fairly recent (some
distributions like archlinux also update frequently) but might miss
the latest upstream version once in a while, so the error might be
already fixed. We apologize and ask you to close the issue immediately
if this should be the case, but given the huge volume of projects and
the very limited number of volunteers we are not able to double check
each and every issue.
Secondly we translators see the manpages in the neutral po format,
i.e. converted and harmonized, but not the original source (be it man,
groff, xml or other). So we cannot provide a true patch (where
possible), but only an approximation which you need to convert into
your source format.
Finally the issues I'm reporting have accumulated over time and are
not always discovered by me, so sometimes my description of the
problem my be a bit limited - do not hesitate to ask so we can clarify
them.
I'm now reporting the errors for your project. If future reports
should use another channel, please let me know.
Man page: wodim.1
Issue: .B --devices → B<--devices>
"Scan all SCSI devices on all SCSI busses and print the inquiry strings. This "
"option may be used to find SCSI address of the CD/DVD-Recorder on a system. "
"If some device types are invisible, try using B<dev=ATA:> or similar option "
"to give a hint about the device type you are looking for. The numbers "
"printed out as labels are computed by: B<bus * 100 + target.> On platforms "
"and device systems without persistent SCSI number management the results are "
"not reliable. Use the .B --devices option instead."

Man page: wodim.1
Issue 1: B<rsh(1)> → B<rsh>(1)
Issue 2: B<rcmd(3)> → B<rcmd>(3)
"Note that this forces B<wodim> to create a pipe to the B<rsh(1)> program and "
"disallows B<wodim> to directly access the network socket to the remote "
"server. This makes it impossible to set up performance parameters and slows "
"down the connection compared to a B<root> initiated B<rcmd(3)> connection."

Man page: wodim.1
Issue: may is → is
"This tells B<wodim> that a drive named I<plex760> is at scsibus 0, target 5, "
"lun 0 and should be used with speed 12 and a FIFO size of 50 MB. It also "
"uses some device specific parameter. A second drive may is accessible via "
"the device file /dev/hdd and uses the default speed and the default FIFO "
"size."
