You could at least had warned me when upstream add an entry in its
changelog:

modprobe: doco fix: -a takes module names, not wildcards.

I will profit of this bug repport to provide to you and Rusty an up-to-date
French translation.

Since I profit of that bug repport to ping upstream again. I do not know
whether or not he wants to include my translations. Rusty can you please
tell me what is your position about manpages translations? Should they
retain only within Debian package or spread for the whole FOSS
community alongside module-init-tools sources?
Marco, with po4a developers, depending on upstream point of view,
we will certainly be able to provide you a debian/rules using po4a that
will helps us to track for an update-to-date translation.
I deaply believe that as translator, I really prefer when my translation
is included upstream instead that when translators reinvent the wheel and
provide different translations depending on Linux Distributor.
