The comments now looks like this:
--- 8< ---
#. Type: boolean
#. Description
#. This template is used by the Ubuntu version of d-i.
#: ../apt-mirror-setup.templates-ubuntu:5
msgid "Use restricted software?"
msgstr ""
#. Type: boolean
#. Description
#: ../apt-mirror-setup.templates-ubuntu:5
msgid ""
"Some non-free software is available in packaged form. Though this software "
"is not a part of the main distribution, standard package management tools "
"can be used to install it. This software has varying licenses which may "
"prevent you from using, modifying, or sharing it."
msgstr ""
--- >8 ---
It seems the comments are only added to the first string among the ones
in the same line of the template, and not the following strings. I
think it may cause some wrong impression (altough it's easy to tell by
just looking at the .templates-ubuntu suffix). So if this is hard to
fix in gettext, maybe you can change the comments to something like "The
following two strings are used..."?
