Dear Debian maintainer, On Thursday, December 22, 2011, I notified you of the beginning of a review process concerning debconf templates for unixcw. The debian-l10n-english contributors have now reviewed these templates, and the final proposed changes are attached to this update to the original bug report. Please review the suggested changes, and if you have any objections, let me know in the next 3 days. However, please try to avoid uploading unixcw with these changes right now. The second phase of this process will begin on Wednesday, January 11, 2012, when I will coordinate updates to translations of debconf templates. The existing translators will be notified of the changes: they will receive an updated PO file for their language. Simultaneously, a general call for new translations will be sent to the debian-i18n mailing list. Both these calls for translations will request updates to be sent as individual bug reports. That will probably trigger a lot of bug reports against your package, but these should be easier to deal with. The call for translation updates and new translations will run until about Wednesday, February 01, 2012. Please avoid uploading a package with fixed or changed debconf templates and/or translation updates in the meantime. Of course, other changes are safe. Please note that this is an approximative delay, which depends on my own availability to process this work and is influenced by the fact that I simultaneously work on many packages. Around Thursday, February 02, 2012, I will contact you again and will send a final patch summarizing all the updates (changes to debconf templates, updates to debconf translations and new debconf translations). Again, thanks for your attention and cooperation. --
# These templates have been reviewed by the debian-l10n-english # team # # If modifications/additions/rewording are needed, please ask # debian-l10n-english@lists.debian.org for advice. # # Even minor modifications require translation updates and such # changes should be coordinated with translators and reviewers. Template: cwcp/suid_bit Type: boolean Default: false _Description: Run cwcp with root privileges? If it is run with elevated privileges (which is not recommended), cwcp can produce sounds using the console buzzer. . Please choose whether this should be achieved by giving the executable the "setuid" attribute. . Alternatives include running the program with sudo or eliminating this issue completely by using output via a sound card instead of the buzzer.

This package provides two executables: * cw - a simple command line application that converts key-presses to Morse code that can be heard through the console buzzer or a sound card; * cwgen - a program that generates groups of random characters for Morse code practice, which can be piped to the cw program. . It also includes example files (with the extension "cw") containing commands which can be used to change properties such as the speed, tone, and spacing of characters. Package: cwcp Architecture: any Depends: libcw3, ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}, debconf|debconf-2.0 Description: Morse code tutor - text user interface The unixcw project provides support for learning to use Morse code over Continuous Wave radio. . This package provides an interactive Morse code tutor with a full-screen text-based (ncurses) user interface. It offers menu selection of sending modes, and keyboard control of character sounding options such as the sending speed and pitch. Package: xcwcp Architecture: any Depends: libcw3, ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}, debconf|debconf-2.0 Description: Morse code tutor - graphical user interface The unixcw project provides support for learning to use Morse code over Continuous Wave radio. . This package provides an interactive Morse code tutor with a Qt4 user interface. It allows choosing from a number of options for practice, including sending random characters, random words, and characters from the keyboard. It will also receive Morse code sent using the keyboard or mouse as a Morse keyer, and display the characters it sees.
