Bug#313523: newt: Please generate a POT file during package build
Package: newt Severity: wishlist Hi! Please generate a POT file during the package build. This is a template file that is used as a basis for translating this software into other languages. It is important that the POT file is always up to date and exactly matches all the strings (including strings from Debian-specific changes), so it is not enough to just put a static one into the package. Apart from being used manually, this POT file can also be extracted automatically and be used with translation frontends like gtranslator or Rosetta. You can get the patch at http://patches.ubuntu.com/patches/newt.potfile.diff Thanks for considering and have a nice day!

Please note that there newt depends on slang, which is undergoing a transition to slang2; hence the next (few?) releases of newt will be in experimental as the slang2 transition is tested. Please see http://wiki.debian.net/?EtchSlang2upgrade for details. I'm planning on having the slang2 upgrade complete by August for inclusion in the next Ubuntu release :-) You can get the patch at http://patches.ubuntu.com/patches/newt.potfile.diff Thanks for considering and have a nice day!
