Package: cupsys Version: 1.1.23-13 Severity: normal Tags: patch The attached patch attempts to rewrite the debconf templates for the package in order to use a writing style which is closer to other packages. It also applies a few style changes as recommended in the relevant section of the Developer's Reference.
If you apply, entirely or partly, this patch, I suggest running debconf-updatepo immediately after and use to podebconf-report-po utility to warn translators about needed updates. I found this while I was about to update the French translation so please keep me posted if, for some reason, you prefer not changing anything..:) PS: the most important change IMHO is the rewrite of the enumeration list to a hard-formatted list...which will save space on the relevant screen. and make it easier for translators to fit in a 80x25 terminal when using dialog as the debconf interface. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.13-1-686 Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages cupsys depends on: ii adduser 3.80 Add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.4.62 Debian configuration management sy ii gs-esp 8.15.1.dfsg.1-1 The Ghostscript PostScript interpr ii libc6 2.3.5-8.1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libcupsimage2 1.1.23-13 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii libcupsys2 1.1.23-13 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii libgnutls12 1.2.9-2 the GNU TLS library - runtime libr ii libpam0g 0.79-3 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libpaper1 1.1.14-3 Library for handling paper charact ii libslp1 1.2.1-3 OpenSLP libraries ii patch 2.5.9-2 Apply a diff file to an original ii perl-modules 5.8.7-9 Core Perl modules ii procps 1:3.2.6-2 /proc file system utilities ii xpdf-utils 3.01-3 Portable Document Format (PDF) sui ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-8 compression library - runtime Versions of packages cupsys recommends: ii cupsys-client 1.1.23-13 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii foomatic-filters 3.0.2-20050720-1 linuxprinting.org printer support ii smbclient 3.0.20b-4 a LanManager-like simple client fo -- debconf information: cupsys/raw-print: true * cupsys/ports: 631 cupsys/backend: ipp, lpd, parallel, socket, usb cupsys/portserror: * cupsys/browse: true
