A recent bug report for Norwegian translations of D-I (netcfg package) has showed that in some cases, the translations for individual Choices in Select or Multiselect templates may be too long.
The maximum length for these translation in the most common interface (dialog interface with 8�x25 screens) is 65 columns. This means no more than 65 characters for single-width languages (Latin-based and cyrillic based languages) and....possibly less for double width languages (mostly CJK). I have added comments about this in POT and PO files and I'm in the process of testing translations for this, thanks to a script by Evguenyi Mescheryakov. However, in the meantime, please all D-I translators check your translations about this problem. The relevant lines to check in PO files may be searched for by looking for "65" in the PO files comments...... PS�: this is too late for fixing this in D-I RC3. We will have to live with it. The affected packages may be netcfg, partman-basicfilesystems, lvmcfg and s390-netdevice. -- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
