Description for libvdeplug2
Hi,
today I translated the description of libvdeplug2 to German. The two
paragraphs at the beginning appear in other descriptions (63862,
63863, 31694, 31700, 31701). I think the wording could be improved.
Kind regards,
Martin

VDE - Virtual Distributed Ethernet
virtual network framework
What VDE is
VDE is an ethernet compliant virtual network that can be spawned over a
set of physical computer over the Internet. VDE is part of virtualsquare
project.
The old description:
# Source: vde2
# Package: libvdeplug2
# Versions: libvdeplug2 (2.2.2-3), libvdeplug2 (2.2.2-1), libvdeplug2
(2.2.3-2), libvdeplug2 (2.2.3-3), libvdeplug2 (2.2.3-3+b1)

Description: Virtual Distributed Ethernet - Plug library
VDE is a virtual switch that can connect multiple virtual machines
together,
both local and remote.
.
Components of the VDE architecture are VDE switches (virtual
counterpart of
ethernet switches) and VDE cables (virtual counterpart of a
crossed-cable used
to connect two switches).
.
This package contains a library that makes programs able to connect to
a local
VDE switch. The simplest one is vde_plug, contained in the vde2 package.
* I don't know how to translate plug here.
* Is together really necessary?
* What is right: virtual counterpart or virtual counterparts?
* "that makes programs able" I consider unfortunate.
My suggestion:
