Bug#306883: krb5: Should not use say yes in debconf templates
Package: krb5 Severity: normal Debconf templates should avoid using constructions like this because of the various interfaces used by debconf. Depending for instance on translation, some of these may present the user with a choice different from a Yes/No choiceand some may not. If you want to see this, just try to choose the gnome interface for debconf, then dpkg-reconfigure your-package under X (you may need some lib* packages installed for the gnome interface to work). So the only solution for avoiding strange templates is by reformulating, for instance : If you choose this option instead of If you say yes here. (or you should not use this option instead of you should answer no here) If you correct this, please run debconf-updatepo after updating the templates, then use the podebconf-report-po utility to warn translators that they need to update their translations (anyway, this is already needed because of the added template). At the minimum, please send me the new debian/po/templates.pot file as I'm currently working to update the French translation. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-2-686 Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to fr_FR.UTF-8) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

I'll update the template later today and use podebconf-report-po (which I found out about after the last upload) to warn translators. I assume that that will also warn you, or do you want a separate copy of the new .pot file? -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
