I suggest you have a look at the text of calls for translations that are posted to -i18n (I suspect that, in this case, this is such a call for tranalstions that lead you to work on this package). When on is posted after a review happened on templates, the templates are most often different from you you find in unstable. This is very likely to happen often after Lenny has been released: during the early release cycle, maintainers will often change their package's templates and I generally use this opportunity to launch a review process (search for "Smith reviews" on Debian wiki for details). In that case, the templates may differ (sometimes a lot) from what you find in unstable. Also, please note that, whenever a given package introduces debconf templates whhile it had none earlier, I nearly always start a review. debian-i18n is notified in such case, with instructions for translators to not "jump" on the POT file to translate too quickly...:) You're probably not very used to this yet, Martin, as this process mostly happened between May 2007 and March 2008, for the etch->lenny release cycle....while you became highly involved in Swedish translations a little bit later, IIRC. But you'll get used to it, no worry..:-)
