Proofreading request: dibbler package descriptions
Hello,
I'm preparing my first Debian packages. As a non-native speaker, I think
it's a good idea that someone should proofread my package descriptions as
well as debconf questions and notes.
So here it is:
--- control ---
Package: dibbler-server
Description: portable DHCPv6 server
This is a DHCPv6 server. It supports both stateful (i.e. IPv6 address
granting) as well as stateless (i.e. options granting) autoconfiguration
modes of DHCPv6 protocol. Relays are also supported. Install Dibbler
server if you'd like to have IPv6 hosts automatically configured in
your network.
Package: dibbler-client
Description: portable DHCPv6 client
This is a DHCPv6 client. It supports both statefull (i.e. IPv6 address
granting) as well as stateless (i.e. option granting) autoconfiguration
modes of the DHCPv6 protocol. Besides basic capabilities, it supports
various DHCPv6 extensions, e.g. option renewal. Install Dibber client if
you want to obtain IPv6 addresses and options from DHCPv6 server.
Package: dibbler-relay
Description: portable DHCPv6 relay
This is a DHCPv6 relay. Relays are used as proxies between server and
clients. Main advantage is the ability to support multiple remote links
using only one server. Install Dibbler relay if you want to serve
multiple not physically connected links with one DHCPv6 server.
Package: dibbler-doc
Description: documentation for dibbler
User's Guide as well as Developer's Guide is included in this package.
That documentation covers all aspects of Dibbler DHCPv6 implementation:
- server, client and relay usage and configuration
- various tips and frequently asked questions
- internal structure/code description and hints for developers
--- dibbler-client.templates ---
Template: dibbler-client/title
Type: title
Description: dibbler-client: DHCPv6 client
Template: dibbler-client/start
Type: boolean
Default: true
Description: Do you want dibbler-client to start when system starts?
Dibbler client can be configured to start at boot, so your host will
have IPv6 set up after boot. This is generally a good idea. Make sure
that you have DHCPv6 server available in your network. However, if you
have installed this package to play with DHCPv6 protocol only, you
should answer NO here.
Template: dibbler-client/interfaces
Type: string
Default: eth0
Description: Which interfaces should be configured by Dibbler client?
Specify which network interfaces should be configured by Dibbler client.
.
If you do not know what network interfaces you have, specifying 'eth0'
is the most reasonable.
.
You can specify more than one interface, just separate the interface
names with spaces.
Template: dibbler-client/options
Type: multiselect
Choices: dns, domain
Default: dns
Description: What additional parameters should be obtained?
Dibbler client can request DHCPv6 server for additional configuration
parameters.
--- dibbler-server.templates ---
Template: dibbler-server/title
Type: title
Description: dibbler-server: DHCPv6 server
Template: dibbler-server/start
Type: boolean
Default: true
Description: Do you want dibbler-server to start when system starts?
Dibbler server can be configured to start at boot. Answer YES, if
this node should act as DHCPv6 server, providing IPv6 addresses and
additional configuration options to other nodes in the network.
Otherwise, answer NO.
Template: dibbler-server/config
Type: note
Description: Modify /etc/dibbler/server.conf before running server.
Make sure that you have modified server.conf configuration file
located in the /etc/dibbler directory. Without proper modifications,
your server will start offering invalid addresses.
--- dibbler-relay.templates ---
Template: dibbler-relay/title
Type: title
Description: dibbler-relay: DHCPv6 relay
Template: dibbler-relay/start
Type: boolean
Default: true
Description: Do you want dibbler-relay to start when system starts?
Dibbler relay can be configured to start at boot. Answer YES, if
this node should forward DHCPv6 messages. Otherwise, answer NO.
Template: dibbler-relay/config
Type: note
Description: Modify /etc/dibbler/relay.conf before running relay.
Make sure that you have modified relay.conf configuration file
located in the /etc/dibbler directory. Without proper modifications,
your relay most likely will refuse to start or will not forward
DHCPv6 messages as expected.
--------
Ok, that's it. I just hope that this list is... well, temporary inactive,
not totally dead :)
