Hi all, I'm writing to this list in hopes that the situation of the German translation for the kdebase debconf templates can be clarified.
We've just recevied Bug#291954 [1], "[l10n] german translation of kdebase debconf messages" from Burkhard Lück. [1] http://bugs.debian.org/291954 However, a translation was already included in kdebase 4:3.3.0a-1 (back in September 2004), and the templates had not changed in the meantime. Such translation was sent in Bug#264608 [2] by Erik Schanze. [2] http://bugs.debian.org/264608 _Still_, there was an older bug from Helge Kreutzmann, Bug#252060 [3], which also contained a translation. We missed this bug when uploading the translation in #264608 -- this shouldn't have happened, but that's how it went. Sorry. [3] http://bugs.debian.org/252060 I apologized to Helge in [4], inviting him to make corrections to Erik's translation if necessary. If you follow the bug, you can see that he did, and CC'ed Erik asking for approval, but there has been no reply until now. [4] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=252060&msg=23 * * * So, the KDE maintainers (and, I can imagine, any maintainer) would be very happy to have only one translation sent, ideally with some sort of "this translation has the approval of the relevant l10n team" link. This way, a straightforward action can be performed ("include the .po file") without fear of incruding the "wrong" translation.
