I have a package (dictionaries-common) that provides two debs, dictionaries-common (standard) and dictionaries-common-dev (optional). This last contains the ispell-wordlists-myspell policy document and has a bug about the architecture the ispell dict packages must have in one special case. Since this only affects the "optional" .deb, can I upload this change to testing-proposed-updates? Also you mention updated package translations, does this include *new* translations or only fixes to existing ones? Thanks for all your work with the sarge release, and please, cc me on replies. Cheers, -- Agustin
