--- Begin Message ---Package: dl10n Version: 3.00+nmu1 Severity: normal Tags: l10n Dear Maintainers, This is about the translation status package of package, e.g. located at https://i18n.debian.org/l10n-pkg-status/b/backintime.html and to my knowledge generated via the dl10n package. If there is an error (e.g. po file with unknown langage code; "can't guess language") that page give misleading information. 1. In the beginning is an example command using "msgfmt". This give the impression that the error can be reproduced by this command, which is not the case. 2. The string "The following errors were found in backintim's PO files" is simply wrong. The ocuring error message (one line later) is generated by "dl10n-check" script and based on the file name of the po file and not its content. Maybe rewrite the string like this: "The helper script dl10n-check reported problems with the following PO files:" 3. The error "gettext: path_to_po_file: can't guess language" is also misleading. That error is not produced by gettext. That message will produce noise on the gettext mailing list and bug tracker as it did in my case. Replace "gettext" string with "dl10n-check". 4. The graphic after "Translation status of package xyz" do use the term "Language". But it provides 2-letter language codes only not language names Regards, Christian Buhtz -- System Information: Debian Release: 12.9 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.1.0-31-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages dl10n depends on: ii gettext 0.21-12 ii liblocale-gettext-perl 1.07-5 ii libmailtools-perl 2.21-2 ii libtimedate-perl 2.3300-2 ii libwww-perl 6.68-1 ii perl 5.36.0-7+deb12u1 ii perl-modules-5.36 [perl-modules] 5.36.0-7+deb12u1 dl10n recommends no packages. dl10n suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
