Hello
Maybe you know, we started with the translation of all debian
package descriptions. Also we make daily new packages files with the
translated descriptions (all other tags are the same).
A user can add this packages files to his /etc/apt/sources.list and
can use the translated description.
But I get a bug report today, and I don't understand apt. Maybe
someone can help...
first the bug report:
The user have add the translated apt source to his sources.list
file (deb http://gluck.debian.org/~grisu/ddts/aptable de/sid main)
and have mc installed.
Package: mc
Status: install ok installed
Version: 4.5.54-1.1
Package: gmc
Status: install ok installed
Version: 4.5.54-1.1
Now he make (with LANG=de_DE, sorry):
apt-get upgrade && apt-get upgrade

You see, in both 'apt-get upgrade' apt installed mc!
If he remove the apt source with the translated package file, he don't have
this problem.
Can someone explain this behavior? Is this a bug in the package file, in the
release file (this is only a copy from ftp.debian.org) or a
bug/feature in APT or dpkg?
Thanks
Gruss
Grisu
