Dear Debian maintainer, The uswsusp Debian package, which you are the maintainer of, has pending bug report(s) which include translation updates or fixes for po-debconf, namely bug number 489939 (and maybe other similar bugs). This is indeed the consequence of last upload which added one string to the package and then made translators rush out. We're now getting very close to the release and fixing l10n bugs should be done now. I have the intention, as part of a more general action of the Debian i18n Task Force to build and possibly upload a non-maintainer upload for uswsusp in order to fix this as well as all pending translations for the debconf templates. Of course, an upload made by you would even be better...:-) Such changes are always harmless, which explains why I safely consider building NMU's for such issues even though they're obviously non critical. The schedule for the NMU (in case it happens, that is if you agree with it or if I don't receive any answer in 10 days) is roughly the following: Friday, August 08, 2008 : send this notice Tuesday, August 12, 2008 : post a NMU announcement to debian-i18n with you (maintainer) CC'ed this can happen earlier if the maintainer agrees In such case, the deadlines below will also happen earlier Monday, August 18, 2008 : (midnight) deadline for receiving translation updates Tuesday, August 19, 2008 : build the package and upload it to DELAYED/2-day send the NMU patch to the BTS Thursday, August 21, 2008 : NMU reaches incoming If you intent to upload yourself, please notify me so that I interrupt the process on my side. Please also don't upload without a discussion with me. Some translators might send a few new translations and I can handle a round of translation updates for you. Really, don't upload silently...:-) In case I upload an NMU, I will subscribe to the Package Tracking System for uswsusp and follow its life for 60 days after my NMU in order to fix any issue potentially introduced by my upload. Let me know, as soon as possible, if you have any kind of objection to this process. If you'd rather do the fix yourself, I will of course leave the package alone. Same if you have reasons not to do the update now. --
