Package: postfix
Version: 2.3.3-1
Severity: minor

debian/templates in the postfix source package marks the default value
for postfix/root_address translatable, and some of the localizations have
translated "NONE" to the appropriate string in that language.  However,
the postfix postinstall script only checks to see if the value is "NONE"
and otherwise adds an alias.  That means that if a user who uses one of
the languages with a translated value accepts the default, they'll get an
alias they probably don't want.

The best solution is probably to make the default the empty string instead
and special-case that, since it poses no localization issues.  Another
solution would be to not mark Default: NONE translatable, so that the
default would be the same regardless (and consistent with the text of that
question, although translators would need to be careful to not translate
NONE in the description).
