Hi,
Thomas Huriaux [EMAIL PROTECTED] (13/12/2006):
Please use gettext-based debconf templates to allow translations, as
recommended by the developers-reference (section 6.5.2.2). See
po-debconf(7). There is also a lintian warning:
W: grub2 source: not-using-po-debconf
If you need additional help to do this switch, do not hesitate to ask me
or to ask on debian-i18n.
I've just seen that this bug has never been fixed properly. The strings
in the templates are not marked as translatable. Furthermore, your
POTFILES.in is not up-to-date. A full patch is attached, please run
debconf-updatepo once it gets fixed.
Note that this is now a must violation as per policy 3.9.1:
Packages which use the Debian Configuration management specification
must allow for translation of their messages by using a gettext-based
system such as the one provided by the po-debconf package.
Cheers,

As of version 1.95, GRUB 2 has changed its numbering scheme. Partitions are
now counted starting from 1 rather than 0. This is to make it consistent with
device names of Linux and the other kernels used in Debian. For example, when
