-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 The DDTP team and the Debian-BR project are proud to announce the second public release of APT featuring support for translated package descriptions.
The initial message on this topic can be found in debian-devel-announce mailing list archives[1]. 1. http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2002/debian-devel-announce-200210/msg00004.html This experimental release was based upon the last released version of APT (0.5.5.1) and was implemented by Debian-BR member and Debian Developer Otavio Salvador <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. Complete sources and patches are available[2]. 2. http://people.debian.org/~otavio/sid/apt This doesn't include any new feature against the last release[3] but remove release-critical bugs of previous upstream version using the current release code for base. 3. http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2003/debian-devel-announce-200304/msg00015.html You may upgrade your Debian unstable system to this experimental APT version by adding the following line to your sources.list : deb http://people.debian.org/~otavio sid apt The sources for the deb packages (if you want to build them yourself) can be retrieved by adding the following line to your sources.list : deb-src http://people.debian.org/~otavio sid apt Since translation files are not yet included in the official mirrors, you will need to add one of the DDTP servers to your sources.list in order to fetch the needed translation files and actually see the translated descriptions. For example, you may add the following line to your sources.list : deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian-ddtp/ unstable main There are two ways to specify the language to be used in package descriptions: - set your LC_MESSAGES environment variable to the desired language (eg. LC_MESSAGES=pt_BR); or - set the APT::Acquire::Translation option in your apt.conf to the desired language by adding the following line to your apt.conf : APT::Acquire::Translation "pt_BR"; Since this version is not yet integrated into Debian, bug reports and patches should be sent to Otavio Salvador <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. - -- O T A V I O S A L V A D O R - --------------------------------------------- E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] UIN: 5906116 GNU/Linux User: 239058 GPG ID: 49A5F855 Home Page: http://www.freedom.ind.br/otavio - --------------------------------------------- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Processed by Mailcrypt 3.5.8 <http://mailcrypt.sourceforge.net/> iD8DBQE+2QoWLqiZQEml+FURAokoAJwIoP7Aq/RsYChacYpINtrz/Wa4cgCfTpUd SA+mVglgSXvkcCxf6AqLHJc= =GbNQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
