Dear Debian maintainer,
On Wednesday, December 19, 2007, I notified you of the beginning of a review
process
concerning debconf templates for htdig.
The debian-l10n-english contributors have now reviewed these templates,
and the proposed changes are attached to this bug report.
Please review the suggested changes are suggested, and if you have any
objections, let me know in the next 3 days.
Please try to avoid uploading htdig with these changes right now.
The second phase of this process will begin on Saturday, January 19, 2008, when
I will
coordinate updates to translations of debconf templates.
The existing translators will be notified of the changes: they will
receive an updated PO file for their language.
Simultaneously, a general call for new translations will be sent to
the debian-i18n mailing list.
Both these calls for translations will request updates to be sent as
individual bug reports. That will probably trigger a lot of bug
reports against your package, but these should be easier to deal with.
The call for translation updates and new translations will run until
about Saturday, February 09, 2008. Please avoid uploading a package with fixed
or changed
debconf templates and/or translation updates in the meantime. Of
course, other changes are safe.
Please note that this is an approximative delay, which depends on my
own availability to process this work and is influenced by the fact
that I simultaneously work on many packages.
Around Sunday, February 10, 2008, I will contact you again and will send a
final patch
summarizing all the updates (changes to debconf templates,
updates to debconf translations and new debconf translations).
Again, thanks for your attention and cooperation.

+_Description: Generate ht://Dig endings database now?
The ht://Dig search engine requires an endings database which has to be
generated before the first start. Generating the database will take a
short while. It can be done either now or later by calling the
- '/usr/sbin/htdigconfig' script. Should the database be generated now
- rather than later on?

Template: htdig/run-rundig
Type: boolean
Default: false
-_Description: Execute the rundig script daily?
- rundig is a program that obtains on-line content and creates a searchable
- database for the ht://Dig search engine. It downloads and indexes HTML
- from the web, as defined in /etc/htdig/htdig.conf. Say Yes if you wish to
- run this program daily. Say No if you don't plan to use htdig in this
- way (perhaps htdig is being used by a third party, for instance KDE, to
- perform local indexing). If in doubt, say No. It is the safest choice
- unless you know what you're doing.
+_Description: Schedule a daily execution of the 'rundig' script?
+ On-line content must be indexed by the 'rundig' script before
+ ht://Dig can be used to search data. That script indexes the
+ web content defined in /etc/htdig/htdig.conf.
+ .
+ If you choose this option, a daily run of the script will be scheduled.
+ You may choose to not use this option if ht://Dig is used another
+ way (for instance by KDE, to
+ perform local indexing). If in doubt, do not choose this option.

-Description: WWW search system for an intranet or small internet
- The ht://Dig system is a complete World Wide Web indexing and searching
- system for a small domain or intranet. This system is not meant to
- replace the need for powerful internet-wide search systems like Lycos,
- Google, or Yahoo!. Instead it is meant to cover the search needs of a
- single company, campus, or even a particular subsection of a website.
- .
- As opposed to some WAIS-based or web-server based search engines,
- ht://Dig can span several web servers at a site. The type of these
- different web servers doesn't matter as long as they understand the
- HTTP 1.0 protocol.

Features:
- * Intranet searching
- * It is free
- * Robot exclusion is supported
- * Boolean expression searching
- * Configurable search results
- * Fuzzy searching (different algorithms supported)
- * Searching of HTML and text files
- * Keywords can be added to HTML documents
- * Email notification of expired documents
- * A Protected server can be indexed
- * Searches on subsections of the database
- * Full source code included
- * The depth of the search can be limited
- * Full support for the ISO-Latin-1 character set
- .
- Please note that ht://Dig is a resource-hog, with respect to processor usage,
- when indexing.
- .
- Disk space requirements:
- .
- 13.000 documents indexed: 150MB disk space with a 'wordlist database'
- 93MB disk space without a 'wordlist'
- .
- Multiplying the number of documents to index by 12.000 comes pretty close
- to the real disk space used.
