Package: conserver
Severity: normal
Tags: patch l10n
Last changes to the debconf templates of conserver revealed that problem.
Even though PO files in debian/po are complete, they indeed do not fit the
templates source file anymore. This can be seen by running the following:
$ msgfmt -o /dev/null debian/po/fr.po
16 translated messages
Stats: 16 translated messages
$ debconf-updatepo
$ msgfmt -o /dev/null debian/po/fr.po
Stats: 15 translated messages, 1 fuzzy translation.
This is because nothing takes care to update the contents of debian/po if
changes are emade to templates. Of course, if you run debconf-updatepo
manually, everything is fine, but that doesn't scale very well.
As a consequence, the i18n team recommends running debconf-updatepo in the
clean target of your debian/rules files.
See the attached patch. Please note that I also added the build dependency
on po-debconf which is implied by that patch.
