OK, so let's keep the active voice. > > -_Description: Is this information correct? > > +_Description: Are these informations correct? > > + Currently configured network parameters: > > + . > > interface = ${interface} > > hostname = ${hostname} > > domain = ${domain} > > > > The original style looked very bad with the new cdebconf layout. > > > > Above is a proposal....this may be enhanced.

So the original is correct for the prompt. Ahem....word for word translation from french.. :-) Let's just drop my "Are these informations" change.... > > > Template: netcfg/confirm_static > > Type: boolean > > Default: true > > -_Description: Is this configuration correct? > > +_Description: Are these informations correct? > > + Currently configured network parameters: > > + . > > interface = ${interface} > > hostname = ${hostname} > > domain = ${domain} > > > > See above for the similar template in DHCP configuration > > Is this information correct? can be re-used. Ditto. So , I guess that whoever will commit this, (s)he has to include Chris suggestions.... For those who don't know, I *do not* have commit access (and do not want to.....I'm a newbie in CVS use....so I would probably make more mistakes than good work...). So, all these debconf polishing stuff need the "usual" package maintainer to commit them (I guess this is one of the people listed in "Uploaders" for each individual package) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
