Re: Bug#726434: Processed: Re: Bug#726434: debian-installer: Time zone "Busingen" is missing "ü" umlaut

Thanks for the patch.

I just committed the fix. I have to admit that I'm not entirely happy
with D-I prompting German users for a timezone which 99.9% of the
country doesn't care about but it seems we can't do anything else
until the Busingen area reverts their specific way to handle time.

Let's just imagine what may think a random Manfred user whho knows
nothing about timezones and the Büsingen exception may think when
being prompted to choose between "Berlin" and "Büsingen" : "Warum
nicht Hamburg, Frankfurt, Dummersdorf or Schiefenthal?"....:-). But,
anyway, better at least have this translated.....

So, let's add two more translatable string to D-I sublevel 3 and,
then, tomorrow, the German translator of D-I will be able to translate
"Berlin" to "Berlin" and "Busingen" to "Büsingen".

(tomorrow only, because the D-I l10n-sync runs once a day to
synchronize the master translation file)


Tchüss !
