Possible MBF: missing Klingon translation for debconf templates
[crossposted to debian-i...@lists.d.o] Summary: around 658 packages provides translatable debconf templates without any translation to Klingon language (tlh). Full 100% localization to Klingon was a release goal for squeeze and we can't release if we don't reach it. I propose a mass bug filing at severity:serious and an appropriate usertag (user:debian-i18n...@lists.debian.org). It would also allow me to be the reporter for bug number #60 which is another release goal for squeeze. A full dd-list of packages is attached to this mail. Please start fixing your packages.

Bug#599747: ITP: SILO -- A mesh and field I/O library and scientific database
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Alastair McKinstry * Package name: SILO Version : 4.8 Upstream Author : LLNL * URL : https://wci.llnl.gov/codes/silo/ * License : BSD (3-clause) Programming Lang: C Description : A mesh and field I/O library and scientific database Silo is a library for reading and writing a wide variety of scientific data to binary, disk files. The files Silo produces and the data within them can be easily shared and exchanged between wholly independently developed applications running on disparate computing platforms. Consequently, Silo facilitates the development of general purpose tools for processing scientific data. One of the more popular tools that process Silo data files is the VisIt visualization tool. Silo supports gridless (point) meshes, structured meshes, unstructured-zoo and unstructured-arbitrary-polyhedral meshes, block structured AMR meshes, constructive solid geometry (CSG) meshes, piecewise-constant (e.g. zone-centered) and piecewise-linear (e.g. node-centered) variables defined on the node, edge, face or volume elements of meshes as well as the decomposition of meshes into arbitrary subset hierarchies including materials and mixing materials. In addition, Silo supports a wide variety of other useful objects to address various scientific computing application needs. Although the Silo library is a serial library, it has some key features which enable it to be applied quite effectively and scalable in parallel. Architecturally, the library is divided into two main pieces; an upper-level application programming interface (API) and a lower-level I/O implementation called a driver. Silo supports multiple I/O drivers, the two most common of which are the HDF5 (Hierarchical Data Format 5) and PDB (Portable Data Base) drivers. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.5 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: powerpc (ppc) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

On top of the library, the netpgp command can digitally sign files and verify that the signatures attached to files were signed by a given user identifier. netpgp can also encrypt files using the public or private keys of users and, in the same manner, decrypt files which were encrypted. The netpgpkeys utility can also be used to generate a new key-pair for a user.

Good point! Actually, both the short and long descriptions are taken verbatim from the package's NetBSD pkgsrc metadata, but there's no reason they must be the same in Debian :) I'll reword them in the RFS in a couple of days.
