Dear Debian maintainer, On Monday, May 28, 2012, I notified you of the beginning of a review process concerning debconf templates for uptimed. 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 uptimed with these changes right now. The second phase of this process will begin on Monday, June 04, 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 Monday, June 25, 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 Tuesday, June 26, 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. --

Template: uprecords-cgi/layout
Type: select
__Choices: pre, list, table
Default: pre
_Description: Format used by uprecords.cgi:
Three different layouts are available for use by the uprecords CGI script.
Which method you use is a matter of personal preference.
.
* pre: Encloses everything in <pre>...</pre>
* list: Makes a list, using <ol>...</ol>
* table: Creates an HTML table.
Template: uprecords-cgi/maxentries
Type: string
Default: 10
_Description: Number of records shown by uprecords.cgi:
While uptimed may keep a large number of uptime records, not all of them
are interesting to the outside world. Thus, you can limit the number of
records that will be shown here.
Template: uprecords-cgi/install_note
Type: note
_Description: uprecords.cgi has been installed into the web tree
You have installed the uprecords-cgi package. That means that a new CGI
script has been installed, which is now visible to the outside world as
http://${hostname}/cgi-bin/uprecords.cgi (if you didn't modify your
web server configuration to have CGI scripts in a different place).
.
In the default web server configuration, CGI scripts are accessible from
anywhere in the world. If you do not want this, you should set up access
restrictions... but why wouldn't you want to show off your uptimes?
.
You may also want to modify the HTML header and footer files in
/etc/uprecords-cgi (or have your webmaster do so).

Template: uptimed/interval Type: string Default: 600 _Description: Delay between database updates (seconds): Uptimed will update its database regularly so that the uptime doesn't get lost in case of a system crash. You can set how frequently this will happen (use higher values if you want to avoid disk activity, for instance on a laptop). Template: uptimed/maxrecords Type: string Default: 50 _Description: Number of records that should be kept: On systems that reboot frequently, you will get a fairly large list of uptime records pretty soon. To avoid this, uptimed will only keep the n highest uptimes. You may want to limit this to a lower value if you want to get emails each time a record is broken or if you reboot your machine often. Template: uptimed/mail/do_mail Type: select __Choices: Never, Record, Milestone, Both Default: Never _Description: Send mails if a milestone or record is reached: Uptimed can be configured to send a mail each time a record is broken or a "milestone" is reached. You can choose whether you: . * never want to receive these mails; * want to be notified only when a record is broken; * would like to know about milestones; * are interested in both. Template: uptimed/mail/address Type: string Default: root _Description: Uptimed email recipient: Since you have chosen to be sent emails, you should specify where to send these mails. Template: uptimed/mail/milestones_info Type: note _Description: Milestone configuration must be done manually The milestones must be configured manually in /etc/uptimed.conf. Since you have chosen to receive emails for milestones you probably want to modify that file.
