Control: tags -1 patch
Control: severity -1 serious
Justification: Policy 3.9.1

Dear Debian maintainer,

On Monday, August 27, 2012, I notified you of the beginning of a review
process concerning debconf templates for fpc.

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 fpc with these changes right now.

The second phase of this process will begin on Saturday, September 7,
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, September 17, 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, September 18, 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.

Regards

David

-Description: Do you want to rename "/etc/fpc.cfg" to "/etc/fpc.cfg.bak"?
- FPC supports now multiple version installations. This allows co-existence of
- multiple versions on the same system. The default version can be selected using
- the update-alternatives command for the following groups:
-     1)fpc      : compiler default version
-     2)fpc.cfg  : configuration file default version
-     3)fp-utils : helper tools default version
+_Description: Rename "/etc/fpc.cfg" to "/etc/fpc.cfg.bak"?
+ FPC now supports having multiple versions installed on the same system.
+ The update-alternatives command can be used to set a default version for
+  * fpc (the compiler);
+  * fpc.cfg (the configuration file);
+  * fp-utils (the helper tools).
  .
- What ever version you may choose as default, the configuration files (2) are
- always backward compatible and it may be very safe to use the latest version
- for it.
