It's indeed about Dutch l10n style guidelines. We try to be in line
with the Dutch translation team at translationproject.org where most of
GNU software translation is taken care of. As a guideline they use the
infinitive for the translation of man pages and commands. I noticed
that the old translation of apt-listbugs was using the imperative
instead, so I switched to the infinitive. That explains why the
translation got altered that much.
