That's a method. However, doing this, you need to take care to only "unfuzzy" lines that were NOT fuzzy *before* the change. Also, you need to *edit* PO files for this and we strictly avoid to recommend doing that. Weird editors sometimes break things in text files (encodings....)... The best way to "unfuzzy" strings is, imho to do "preventive unfuzzy": - use "sed" to replace strings in msgid's from the faulty wording to the correct one *BEFORE* runing what updates the PO file (in that case debconf-updatepo) -then update the PO files This way, if a string was formerly marked "fuzzy" (because it was outdated or so), it will remain fuzzy while those which were not will not be fuzzied by the PO update. > > > ......what exactly is this action may > > involve the use of tricky gory actions on PO files...:-) > > > > (something like "sed 's/\. /\. /g'" and "sed 's/metaserver/meta-server/g'") > > Only in the CS translation my ".
