Dear Kai,
Many thanks for your email - I would be delighted to support any
effort to produce a German localization of cryptmount.
As regards the "user-%lu" string, this is issued when someone
tries to unmount a filesystem that was mounted by a different user. The
message is supposed to give the numerical user identity (as provided by
getuid()). So, only the '%lu' part should be the numerical UID, and a
typical output might be 'only user-16 can unmount "opaque"'.
If you do manage to produce a German set of translations, I
would be very grateful if you could send me a copy for inclusion future
releases of cryptmount.
Kind regards,
Richard
