Certainly, that's not optimal.....but it doesn't break anything. We
actually had this situation recently when xdm/gdm/kdm templates were
reviewed. During a transition period, these packages had shared
templates with different wording....

Hmmm, OK. Generally, Luk is clever about such things so I still don't
think it broke that much stuff..:)

For l10n NMU, ie NMUs targeted only to add missing translations, I'm
probably alone...Sometimes it requires quite some time to discuss with
maintainers..:-)

OK, fine. Thanks for your responsiveness.
I didn't really comment the other changes I psoposed in my patch so
let's be complete:
* [Lintian] Spell GTK+ properly in the package description
Recent lintian check: "GTK" should always be written as "GTK+"
* [Lintian] Add copyright information in debian/copyright
That file should always mention copyrights associated with the
software. I picked it in the source code
* [Lintian] Move the menu entry to Applications/Sound
"Apps/Sound" no longer exists
* [Lintian] No longer create empty /usr/share/man/man1 directory
fo mp3info-gtk
That one was loosely checked. You might want to double check it
* [Lintian] No longer ignore errors from "make clean"
[ ! -f Makefile ] || $(MAKE) clean
instead of
-$(MAKE) clean
* [Lintian] No longer set debhelper compatibility in debian/rules
Use debian/compat instead.
recommended practice. I didn't change the debhelper compatibility
level. You might want to do it (IIRC, you need to do it if you raise
Standards-Version). 5 is suggested....you can also use "6" if you
don't care about backportability.
