This issue was spotted after attempting to translate descriptions of binutils *-dbg packages by using DDTSS. Packages with empty extended description are not handled properly by DDTSS and fetching them causes some troubles (translation interface is quite broken). For reference, see [1] and [2] (login required). Maybe the assumption that packages with empty long description would never reach the archive was made. I clone&reassign this bug so that @l10n-devel folks will be informed about this problem. > Not at all! Well spotted - please keep looking for other problems :) I will do it (after digging more in deep before opening something else :) ). Thanks again!
