Yes! > Well, if this template has been added, I guess this is because it will > be displayed at some time?�:-) Looking at the code, it will be displayed randomly once every 2^128 installations. There are no indication on the purpose of that code in the debian/changelog or the CVS changelog. I asked Petter on irc if he was going to fix that, but he told me to fix it myself, so I am rather going to revert the code and remove that template. > Anyway, it is already translated for several languages. Then I apologize for not spotting this sooner. Please don't waste your time anymore translating this template. Cheers, -- Bill. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Popularity-contest maintainer.
