Package: release-notes

The german translation of the release-notes states, that the Linux kernel
does not support case-sensitive filename handling for vfat when the "utf8"
option is used (quoting
<http://www.debian.org/releases/lenny/i386/release-notes/ch-information.de.html#partitionenc>):

   Zu beachten ist, dass der Linux-Kernel es nicht unterstützt, zwischen
   Groß- und Kleinschreibung in Dateinamen zu unterscheiden, wenn bei vfat
   die utf8-Option genutzt wird.

In contrast to the german translation, according to the English Version,
the kernel does not support case-insensitive filename handling for vfat
when the utf8 option is used.

Which statement is the correct one?

If the English statement is the correct one, then one possible translation
to the German version could be:

   Zu beachten ist, dass der Linux-Kernel es nicht unterstützt,
   Unterschiede in der Groß- und Kleinschreibung in Dateinamen zu
   ignorieren, wenn bei vfat die utf8-Option genutzt wird.


Could someone correct this?

Thank you in advance.

It's a difficult sentence because of the many negations in it ("not",
"in") and I'm sure most languages have to rephrase "case-sensitive" :-)

Probably the English one as the German part is just a translation.

Thanks, I used your suggestion. See

http://svn.debian.org/viewsvn/ddp/manuals/trunk/release-notes/de/issues.po?rev=6598&sortby=date&r2=6598&r1=6547

It would be great if you could help us proofreading the translation.
Just use the link I give you above to acces the PO files.
