Package: courier
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
while updating the german debconf translation, I found some bad wording:
#. Type: note
#. Description
#: ../courier-base.templates:6001
msgid ""
" + All file owners and file in /etc/courier and /var/lib/courier\n"
" are correctly set.\n"
" + MAILUSER and MAILGROUP settings in /etc/courier/esmtpd is set to\n"
" correct user and group, both has to be set to `courier'."
msgstr ""
I find the first sentence not well understandable, I suspect the
following is meant:
"The file owners of all files in /etc/courier and /var/lib/courier
are correctly set.\n"
Please correct the wording, to make sure, that translators interprete it
correctly.
So long
Holger

I have recently taken over maintenance of the courier packages. I apologize
that nobody responded to your email. Reviewing the template file, it appears
that in the intervening years somebody remove the problematic text. As such,
I am closing this bug report. But please feel free to file a new bug if you
discover any other problems with the template.
