This is true - I cannot change the regular package after release - I have to take what translators provided me at that point of time.

Just for your information: I expect upstream to release "this weekend" - but this might be actually next monday/tuesday. Then I might take a day or two to package this for unstable. After migration ( ~ 5 days) I would like to prepare my backports, which would need the proper package relations. (But I can delay this a few days, if necessary, of course).
