Please find, for review, the debconf templates and packages descriptions for the kde4libs source package.
This review will last from Saturday, October 17, 2009 to Tuesday, October 27, 2009.
Please send reviews as unified diffs (diff -u) against the original
files. Comments about your proposed changes will be appreciated.
Your review should be sent as an answer to this mail.
When appropriate, I will send intermediate requests for review, with
"[RFRn]" (n>=2) as a subject tag.
When we will reach a consensus, I send a "Last Chance For
Comments" mail with "[LCFC]" as a subject tag.
Finally, the reviewed templates will be sent to the package maintainer
as a bug report, and a mail will be sent to this list with "[BTS]" as
a subject tag.

_Description: Stop possible unsafe upgrade of KDE4 with running sessions?
You are about to upgrade to the new version of the kdelibs5 package which
- introduces a major configuration change. Newly started KDE 4 applications
- will use ~/.kde directory to store user settings and data (also known as
- KDEHOME) by default while currently running KDE 4 applications use ~/.kde4.
- KDE 3 applications have always used (and will continue to use) ~/.kde. It
- seems that there are a few KDE 4 applications running on your system at the
- moment. To avoid potential setting/data loss, you should:
+ introduces a major configuration change. Details are given in

upgrading again.

The original template was way too long and was trying to say too many
things. It generally triggers more problems than it solves.
Also, the original template was making references to specific aspects
of the interface ('Yes' and 'No' answers) that may vary depending on
the debconf interface and locale settings.
So, I rewrote the template entirely, trying to say the same important
information in a shorter way.
I indeed propose moving the gory details about ~/.kde and ~/.kde4 in a
README.Debian file.

Add missing article.
Drop "your": the user doing the upgrade is not necessarily owning the
data.

Description: library for the KDE 4 Plasma desktop
Plasma is one of the key technologies of KDE 4 (also known as the "Pillars
of KDE"), and one of the most visible to users. It is the component that
is "in charge" of the desktop interface; the desktop, panel (often referred
simply as the task bar), and related elements. Plasma aims to change the
traditional concepts of the "Desktop", incorporating semantic application
elements, and bringing cooperating technologies to the user's fingertips in
a way that is visually appealing while easing work flow.

This package contains the KDE 4 Plasma library. It is part of the KDE 4
libraries module.
