Package: debhelper Version: 13.20 Severity: minor Dear Niels,
while updating the strings in the debhelper documentation the l10 documentation team noticed a few issues in the text which I report in the attached text file. Just for reference: The update of the german translation has been reported in a separate report as https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1083169. The remarks listed below appear in the po template as FIXME, too. The first two strings seem to be contradictionary to be. The other ones are just typos or about formatting, nothing serious. In case the documentation is updated I will be happy to update the translation accordingly. Thank you very much for maintaining this huge project, Christoph Brinkhaus
