  Binary package hint: youtranslate

- WIP - PLEASE DON'T TOUCH!
- =======================
  
  YouTranslate! is a simple graphical application that searches words or
  sentences in online (web based) translation services for you, and to
  achieve this it parses the HTML of the sites it uses. But we all know
  that the web changes and that's the reason why...
  
  The YouTranslate! package in Gutsy and Hardy is completely useless
  because of changes in the websites it accesses that don't let it get any
  translation. I've fixed this problem in Intrepid and I'm filling this
  bug to backport the patch to Gutsy and Hardy.
  
  The patch is a little bit intrusive, but it is necessary for the
- application to do anything at all. I'm also using this revision to do
- three other minor changes (fixing the menu file, updating the Homepage
- field to point to upstream's new location and removing debian/docs as
- the file it installs isn't interesting) which I consider zero-risk.
- Please find a debdiff to the current version attached below.
+ application to do anything at all. Additionaly, the package is failing
+ to build from source, and as the other changes (like fixing the menu
+ file and adding a .desktop file, updating the Homepage field to point to
+ upstream's new location and removing debian/docs as the file it installs
+ isn't interesting, adding icons for the menu, etc.) can be considered
+ zero-risk (except perhaps the switch to CDBS, but I couldn't see any
+ regression there :)) I think the best option would be to just pull the
+ package from Intrepid into Gutsy and Hardy.
