        Hi,
 Sorry for the obvious report, but mozilla-locale-fr is uninstallable in
 sid, and soon to be uninstallable in sarge (hence I'm not tagging sid).
I am tagging the package sid, as mozilla-locale-fr is still installable 
in sid and will still be installable in sarge (mozilla won't migrate to 
sarge if some packages become uninstallable in sarge).

 This is because this package depends of a specific version of Mozilla.
 Please request/make the necessary changes in your build system so that
 it doesn't prevent users from updating their mozilla-browser package.
I can't. The French translation is not available for this version, I 
can't create it!

 Galeon suffers of the very same problem, and it is not acceptable to
 have packages lagging behind mozilla versions since this causes
 breakage when users need to "hold" packages (such as the reopening of
 #288875).
I agree but I don't have a magic solution for that. If you have one, 
please tell me. Meanwhile, you can remove the French translation.

Bye,
Aurelien
