Thanks, Jeremy, for giving context to SRUing this package. I added yet
another para which may or may not be relevant.

I also installed version 3.26.2.1-0ubuntu0.1 of gnome-user-docs and some
of the gnome-user-docs-<lang> packages from artful-proposed, and
completed the test case successfully.

** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  
  The difference between the current 3.26.1 and 3.26.2.1 consists mainly
  of translation updates. There are a couple of minor bug fixes to the
  content as well. This is the way to update the gnome-user-docs
  translations.
  
  [Test Case]
  
  Example verification step:
  
  * yelp help:gnome-help
  
  * Open the "Special characters" page in the "Tips & tricks" section, and
  find that the "Character map" section has been replaced with a
  "Characters" section.
  
  [Regression Potential]
  
  Low.
  
  GNOME bugfix releases have a standing microrelease exception. See
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#GNOME
  
  The GNOME Documentation Team agreed to a translation freeze policy
  (proposed by Ubuntu) for the 3.26 series to enable distros to ship
  micro-releases  of gnome-user-docs without regressing translations.
  Additionally, gnome-user-docs (and ubuntu-docs) starting in Ubuntu 17.10
  has opted out of Ubuntu language packs so that translations can be made
  for bug fix string changes without trying to coordinate with Ubuntu's
  language pack release schedule.
  
  See https://wiki.gnome.org/DocumentationProject/Tasks/ReleaseSchedule
  for more details about the translation freeze policy.
+ 
+ It's worth mentioning that the build process itself prevents most
+ potential regressions. For instance, if a translated string does not
+ comply with the Mallard syntax, it's ignored and replaced with the
+ original English string, instead of causing the page become unreadable.
+ Successfully running the command "yelp help:gnome-help" - maybe also
+ under more than the English locale - is in itself a measure to exclude
+ the presence of regression.
