a) I did not receive a separate message
b) A reply did not include Christian Perrier, hence manually adding
him to CC:

Well, I haven't seen a single message to this bug report, but that's
usual (unfortunately), many maintainers neglect l10n. But I guess I
don't have to tell that to you, don't I?

Nope, my one is not integrated in the latest version in sid as of
today (0.4.11-3+b1). I'm a little disappointed about simple "closing"
of bug reports without checking or asking. You know, you could've
asked if you wanted me to recheck the German man page?

Well, you did not reply about using po4a or anything regarding the
tool used for aptitude.

This offer is meant seriously!

Not fixed.

This one seems to be fixed, though I did not do a thourough analysis.

Please contact the translator and ask him/her to update the man page.
I'm sure (s)he can get help/advise/proof reading on
