Hi,

Since gettext 0.16, msgcmp's behaviour regarding untranslated entries
has changed. Quote from NEWS:
----------------------------------------
* msgcmp now ignores fuzzy and untranslated messages in the PO file.
  Previously it considered fuzzy and untranslated messages the same way
  as translated messages, which was hardly useful.  The previous
  behaviour can be obtained through the options --use-fuzzy
  --use-untranslated.
----------------------------------------

This affects po-debconf's check, since it compares a newly extracted
test.pot with the templates.pot from the package. Since both .pot files
contain only untranslated entries, msgcmp complains:

$ msgcmp  debian/po/test.pot debian/po/templates.pot
debian/po/test.pot:22: this message is untranslated
debian/po/test.pot:30: this message is untranslated
debian/po/test.pot:37: this message is untranslated
debian/po/test.pot:45: this message is untranslated
debian/po/test.pot:22: warning: this message is not used
debian/po/test.pot:30: warning: this message is not used
debian/po/test.pot:37: warning: this message is not used
debian/po/test.pot:45: warning: this message is not used
msgcmp: found 4 fatal errors

To avoid this, please change

  system_env("/usr/bin/msgcmp debfiles/po/test.pot ....

to

  system_env("/usr/bin/msgcmp --use-untranslated debfiles/......


Thanks,
    dam

Changes:

 .
   The "we haven't run this against the whole archive in a while" release
 .
   * checks/binaries{.desc,}:
     + [RA] Tag unrecognized ELF binaries as apparently corrupted rather
       than failing with a note that binutils-multiarch is required.  Some
       packages have had ELF binaries recognized by file but unreadable.
       Reported by Bill Allombert.  (Closes: #399456)
   * checks/infofiles:
     + [RA] Don't consider /usr/share/infon to be an info directory.
       Reported by Joachim Breitner.  (Closes: #399857)
   * checks/md5sums:
     + [RA] Also don't complain about missing md5sums for files in
       /var/lib/ispell as they're changed after installation.  Thanks,
       Agustin Martin.  (Closes: #401070)
   * checks/po-debconf:
     + [RA] gettext 0.16's msgcmp requires --use-untranslated when checking
       for newer templates than PO files or it gives false positives for
       every package.  Thanks, Damyan Ivanov.  (Closes: #400957)
     + [RA] Don't consider directories to be stray template files even if
       named template.  Thanks, Thomas Huriaux.  (Closes: #401442)
   * checks/shared-libs:
     + [RA] Don't report shlib-with-non-pic-code unless we're sure that
       we're looking at a shared library.  Otherwise, we get many false
       positives on some platforms where text relocations are normal for
       binaries.  Reported by Bill Allombert.  (Closes: #399525)
 .
   * collection/file-info:
     + [RA] Unescape non-ASCII characters escaped by tar before running
       file on the resulting filename.  Otherwise, file can't find the
       file, exits with an error, and lintian aborts.  Reported by Bill
       Allombert.  (Closes: #399392)
   * collection/objdump-info:
     + [RA] Include unrecognized format errors from objdump in the output
       rather than aborting; some packages contain apparently corrupt ELF
       binaries.
 .
   * debian/control:
     + [RA] Depend on gettext 0.16 or later for --use-untranslated.
 .
   * lib/Lab.pm:
     + [RA] Preserve the old package lists when setting up a static lab so
       that the unpack programs can build a list of changed packages and
       incremental mode works.  Thanks, Bill Allmobert.  (Closes: #400342)
 .
   * unpack/list-udebpkg:
     + [RA] Handle compressed udeb Packages files.  Thanks, Bill
       Allombert.  (Closes: #400338)
