--- Begin Message ---Package: libghc-hscolour-doc Severity: wishlist Tags: patch Hi, all of the libghc translations has in Sid been changed so they no longer has the repeated text i separated sections. Meaning that translators has too translate the same text again (and again and again - you have a lot of packages). Example: http://ddtp.debian.net/ddt.cgi?package=libghc-hscolour-doc Wheezy HsColour currently has five output formats: ANSI terminal codes, HTML 3.2 with <font> tags, HTML 4.01 with CSS, LaTeX, and mIRC chat client codes. . This package contains the library documentation. 83063 in wheezy is translated to Danish and the first sections has the information for the three packages. In Sid you have changed this to: Description: Documentation for libghc-hscolour-dev; documentation HsColour currently has five output formats: ANSI terminal codes, HTML 3.2 with <font> tags, HTML 4.01 with CSS, LaTeX, and mIRC chat client codes. This package provides the documentation for a library for the Haskell programming language. See http://www.haskell.org/ for more information on Haskell. The result is that the first section is no longer translated (and has to be translated at least three times) and the last part has to be translated in each and every package description. an extra dot: HsColour currently has five output formats: ANSI terminal codes, HTML 3.2 with <font> tags, HTML 4.01 with CSS, LaTeX, and mIRC chat client codes. . This package provides the documentation for a library for the Haskell programming language. See http://www.haskell.org/ for more information on Haskell. would mean that the translation for the second section would be copied automatically to all the other package descriptions with the same text. And the first part would be copied to the three package descriptions with this text. That little dot means a lot (for us translators) bye Joe (Danish) PS: I have just sent this bug report for one package, but it is relevant for a lot of package descriptions (all libghc-***).
