[tbm@cyrius.com: [Traduc] glibc: gratuit vs libre in French messages for localedef]



Hello,

The list of french translators of debian seems a good place to send such a
message, too.

Bye, Mt.

Version: 2.1.2-1

[ Disclaimer: I'm not a native French speaker! ]

The French message text for localedef -V appears to claim that the
program is free-beer-free (`gratuit') rather than free-speech-free
(`libre'):

chiark:~$ LANG=fr localedef -V
localedef (GNU libc) 2.1.2

Certainly the translation of the GPL at
http://www.linux-france.org/article/these/gpl.html seems to prefer
`libre' to `gratuit'.
