You're a bit short on this point. Why ?

Letting gettext handle the translation syncronization, and letting dpkg
handle technical syncronization does not seem that bad to me. This can lead
to desyncronisation of the translation sometimes, but mainly in 'unstable',
where it's not critical. Please also note that nobody said there is any
simple solution.

That's not sane either because you will need to reimplement a lot of gettext
in dpkg, with no other benefit than having dpkg reinventing the wheel. (I
mainly think about tracking translation accurary and several language
fallback)

Oh, I like this form. But what will it do ? I would say that when called
with --merge-lang option, dpkg call msgcat in background to merge the new
translation with the old one, and generate the resulting mo file. What's
your wish for this option ?

Well, the patch I proposed contain a w_i18n_charfield function, which is
used only for the description in the table in lib/parse.c You're free to use
it for other fields also, but I did not find any.
This lead me to think that we are speaking since almost one month about a
patch nobody reviewed seriously. That's my fault, I submitted it without any
explanation. Let me explain how it works:
First point, it does not change any status information because I think
gettext is better than any patch I can ever submit, and gettext have its own
"status file" (the mo files).
Second point, the patch is against the cvs version, and won't apply to the
released version.
Third, this patch do not solve the publishing issue. Ie, the mo file have to
be installed for it to work. I don't care if it's using a po file in each
package, concatening them and compiling them on fly, or if you have a
package installing all translation, or if you ask to Martians to send you
this file, that's another point (which also need to be solved, but not with
this patch).
Then, four outputs are modified:
1) dpkg --list
2) the short description of the package in the list of dselect
3) the long description, at the bottom of the dselect windows, when on a
package
4) dpkg --status and --print-avail
For 1-3, the data flow in dpkg and dsellect is classically:
a) information on disk
b) information in memory
c) filtering, sellecting information
d) preprocessing (wrapping, or isolating short desc)
e) output to screen
My patch only insert a call to dgettext between (c) and (d). It is a call to
Dgettext and not the regular gettext because the text to translate does not
take place in the dpkg textual domain. So, we've made a new textual domain
called dpkg-desc, and use the function dgettext to allow searching in this
new domain.
I did not put the call between (a) and (b) because these informations get
written on disk sometime. This would be bad to write some translated
information in place of the english one because the different admins of the
machine may speak different languages.
I did not put the call between (b) and (c) to reduce the number of call to
gettext. Even if all gettext translations are cached, the time taken is not
null. And also, this would need to change the filtering process.
I did not put the call between (d) and (e) because gettext want the original
in the exaclty same way than it's in the mo file (so, no wrapping)
See the attached patch for more details on exactly were I've put the
dgettext call.
For the fourth one (dpkg -l and -p), that's a bit more tricky, because dpkg
use the same buffer mecanism when writting db to disk and when outputing
results for end-user. There is a ta

Think, you will have to design: - the extracting tool control -> po file ok, that's true for all solutions ;) I'm working on a patch against gettext so that it can handle text following rfc822. - a mechanism to help the translator finding which text have to be translated in the po file. With your solution, the translator will face something like msgid "dpkg-1.9" msgstr "" and how will them find what text they have to translate ? most of the translators I know are running the stable version of debian because they are not as geek as maintainers. - a mechanism to produce the mo file, or what ever. If you stick to the po format, you can reuse msgfmt, through. - an output mecanism, including the fallback to original if the translation is outdated. You have either to rewrite msgfmt to do this job at previous step, or design a new function in dpkg, apt, grep-dctrl, and all programm using the translated descriptions. If you change any tool of the gettext mechanism, you lost advantages from the translator point of view, like compendium, containing standard translations for reuse, or user-friendly tools like kbabel for translating, (including ispell possibility, which is implemented in kbabel, and some others) For what gain ? A lookup less ? But gettext is cached, and well optimized. I think the change and redesign is too much, regarding to the small speedup you can expect... Smaller resulting po files ? Come on, the woody+1 release will come on 6 CD or more, and you are speaking about saving a few Mb... These data will be well compressed, as any natural text, so that a minor problem, in my point of view. Bye, Mt. -- Un clavier azerty en vaut deux.

While I agree with the masking problems comment, there's at least one situation where it really should be enhanced IMHO.

Note that this doesn't really mean, "Build this source with svgalibg1-dev if this is available in this architecture, and if not build with svgalib-dummyg1". It can mean "Try to install svgalibg1-dev, but if it was not possible to obtain it, try to install svgalib-dummyg1" i.e. a broken mirror, or a broken package (with impossible dependency?) can cause a "there should be SVGA support but it doesn't in this particular build that the autobuilder has built".

Bug#112020: ITP: keychain -- An OpenSSH key manager
Package: wnpp Severity: whishlist From the keychain help: Keychain is an OpenSSH key manager, typically run from ~/.bash_profile. When run, it will make sure ssh-agent is running; if not, it will start ssh-agent. It will redirect ssh-agent's output to ~/.ssh-agent, so that cron jobs that need to use ssh-agent keys can simply source this file and make the necessary passwordless ssh connections. In addition, when keychain runs, it will check with ssh-agent and make sure that the ssh RSA/DSA keys that you specified on the keychain command line have actually been added to ssh-agent. If not, you are prompted for the appropriate passphrases so that they can be added by keychain.
