Hi, (Please CC me on replies, I am not subscribed to the list.) I'm requesting a review of the English text for the debconf templates file for the package xastir. This is a similar debconf option to that given by wireshark allowing non-root users that are a member of a group to use the network interfaces directly. I am a native English speaker, but if there are changes that will make this text clearer or make the text easier to translate, then I'll be happy to make them. I notice it is Debian policy to "Be kind to translators" (section 6.5.2.2). (: I have attached the templates file with my text. Thanks, Iain. -- e: irl@fsfe.org w: iain.learmonth.me x: irl@jabber.fsfe.org t: EPVPN 2105 c: 2M0STB g: IO87we p: 1F72 607C 5FF2 CCD5 3F01 600D 56FF 9EA4 E984 6C49
Template: xastir/install-setuid Type: boolean Default: false _Description: Should non-superusers be able to use native AX.25 from Xastir? Xastir can be installed in a way that allows members of the "xastir-ax25" system group to use a native Linux AX.25 interface from within Xastir. This is recommended over the alternative of running Xastir as root, as this configuration will attempt to use Linux capabilities to limit the privileges available to Xastir to only those required. Note that if Linux capabilities are not available, the binary will be installed setuid. . For more detailed information please see /usr/share/doc/xastir/README.Debian. . Enabling this feature may be a security risk, so it is disabled by default. If in doubt, it is suggested to leave it disabled.
