W: bubblemon: unknown-locale-code sh
This one is tad harder. If I understand it correctly, "sh" is a
deprecated language code for Serbo-Croatian. You could install this
language file as "sr@latin", "hr", or both. (I hope there's at least
one -mentors@ reader from Serbia or Croatia who'll correct me if I'm
talking nonsense.)
Yes, I tried searching for the correct way to handle this, but didn't
find anything conclusive.
Changing stuff that involves countries and languages can be sensitive,
so I didn't feel it would be good to change it without a clear answer.
- The item about new upstream release could be improved a bit. "New
upstream release. (Closes: #567423, #625314)" could make people think
that there were two bugs requesting a new upstream release... which is
obviously not the case here.
Oh, ah. Yes, you're right, I didn't think of it that way.
How about being more explicit? E.g. you could use something like this:
| * New upstream release.
| + Update Portugese translation (closes: #567423). Thanks to Américo
| Monteiro for the patch.
| + Fix FTBFS with GCC 4.6 (closes: #625314). Thanks to Matthias Klose
| for the bug report.
I guess I was too focused on debian/changelog being about changes to
the packaging and not to the software itself. I agree it is much nicer
to include information about what the closed bugs were; thanks.
Should I summarize the rest of the changes to the software as well?
