Hi
Michael Lustfield reported in Ubuntu bug
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/logcheck/+bug/398703 that the
header of logcheck is spelt incorrectly:
"This email is sent by logcheck. If you no longer wish to receive
such mails, you can either deinstall the logcheck package or modify
its configuration file (/etc/logcheck/logcheck.conf)."
The word "mails" should be "mail". Mail is very commonly pluralized
when it should not be. This is one of those cases.
If you would like context, consider these sentences.
I didn't receive my mails from the post office yet.
I sent you the mails yesterday.
These are the exact same situation. If you're a native English
speaker, I would hope these make everything clear.
BTW, This is a pretty nice tool. If it weren't great, I wouldn't
bother suggesting the improvement.
Would you mind changing debian/header.txt as he proposes?
Thanks,
