Package: manpages-de
Version: 0.5-4.1
Severity: minor

Hi,

the manpage of ps(1) contains the following formulation:

"--cumulative     Daten von toten Kindern einbeziehen (als Summe
zusammen mit den Eltern)"

Speaking of "dead childs" is neither political nor ethically correct and
might cause people to think of Debian as the butcher OS instead of the
universal OS. Besides that: Even the english manpage does not speak
about "dead childs", but of "dead child process data" which makes me
guess that the writer of the original manpage was aware of the potential
problem.

I'd suggest the following formulation instead:
"--cumulative    Daten von toten Kind-Prozessen einbeziehen (in Summe
mit den Eltern-Prozessen)"

Best Regards,

Patrick Schönfeld
