I have built a new version of the Debconf review toolkit, which is the
set of scripts I use on my own system to manage the process of debconf
reviews and subsequent translation updates.
It is available in http://people.debian.org/~bubulle/smith/
Changes (not Frenglish-proof):
Bug Fixes:
* rewrite-call: use ${status_dir} for templates files
* rewrite-makepatch: silent failure of "rm" when there are no
existing patch and backup files
New features:
* Handle threading:
- the scripts that send mails to the mailing list
generate the Message-Id instead of letting mutt do this
- this Message-Id is stored in the status file
- They use the former step status file Message-Id to
include a In-Reply-To field
- this needs important changes to templates which now
have to include the message headers
* rewrite-bts: set usertags to the bug
* rewrite-bug: add a comment at the top of templates files
aimed at explaining that the templates have been reviewed
* rewrite-call: now use the call for updates/call for new translations
templates. Requires po-debconf 1.0.9
* rewrite-call: automatically add a new changelog entry with the
rewrite bug closure line as well as an entry for debconf
translation updates
* rewrite-taf: send a notice to debian-i18n to mention the planned
review and avoid translation work in the meantime
* rewrite-makepatch: create a patch-nopo file with all changes
but changes to PO files
* New settings in rewrite.conf:
- usertag_user: user used for usertags
- usertag: usertag to set on reported bugs
- warning: name of the file containing the warning to add at
the top of templates files
- templ_tafi18n: name of the file containing the template for
the notice sent to debian-i18n for a TAF
- i18nlist_addr: address of the i18n mailing list
- from: string to use as From: in sent mails
- bug_closure: text to add to debian/changelog after the bug
has been reported
* New templates file
- warning.txt: warning added at the top of templates files
- tafi18n.txt: template for the notice sent to debian-i18n for a TAF
Documentation:
* Numerous improvement to the README file
