--- Begin Message ---Package: partman Severity: normal There are a lot of duplicated templates in partman. For example, the */check_failed, */create_failed, */no_mount_mount, vary only in the filesystem type, so it could be a substitution. */mountpoint, *bad_mountpoint, */specify_mountpoint, */no_mountpoint, etc. Really only the names of the filesystems vary. This creates extra work for translators, and ends up using a lot of disk space/memory. I do think it's good to be able to vary these templates for special filesystems that need different ones. What I think would be good would be to have a stock set of templates. Plugins that need their own templates could then add them, and the code that displays the messages would first try to use the templates provided by the plugins, but if they were unavailable, would fall back to the stock templates. -- System Information: Found unknown policy: ('1', 'pool')Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.25 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US -- see shy jo
