Package: docbook-xsl
Version: 1.73.2.dfsg.1-5
Severity: normal

As you expect from admon.xsl, "note|important|warning|caution|tip"
should be distinct even when translated.

(This mail will likely to be encoded in 7bit, iso-2022-jp.  You may need
to conver to UTF-8 to read it.  Use filter such as iconv or nkf)

But /usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/nwalsh/common/ja.xml has (in UTF-8):
---
<l:gentext key="CAUTION" text="注意"/>
<l:gentext key="Caution" text="注意"/>
<l:gentext key="caution" text="注意"/>
...
<l:gentext key="NOTE" text="注意"/>
<l:gentext key="Note" text="注意"/>
<l:gentext key="note" text="注意"/>
---

The latter is better translated as:
---
<l:gentext key="NOTE" text="注記"/>
<l:gentext key="Note" text="注記"/>
<l:gentext key="note" text="注記"/>
---

By the way upstrean site:
https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/docbook/trunk/gentext/locale/ja.xml

This contain same problem.  So this is upstrean problem exist now.

Also 

<l:gentext key="notes" text="注意"/>
<l:gentext key="Notes" text="注意"/>

These should be changed to

<l:gentext key="notes" text="注記"/>
<l:gentext key="Notes" text="注記"/>

This makes things consistent.

FYI:
 注意 calls for attention, second character is "sense in brain"
 注記 additional notes, second character is "written note"

"Note(s)" used to be "註" in classical Japanese text.  But in modern
Japanese, we use "注" in short form and "注記" as long form.
