Please unblock package fpc

I have just get a fpc upload to unstable sponsored by Peter Green. This
upload is fixing an important bugs#686038 to allow translating user
targeted question upon installation.

I've attached a debdiff and provided here after the explanation about
the changes.

1) fpc-2.6.0/debian/changelog: Short description of the changes
2) fpc-2.6.0/debian/control: Automatically generated file from
fpc-2.6.0/debian/control.in (see below for changes in this file)
3) fpc-2.6.0/debian/control.in: Updated build dependency and
descriptions
3.1) fpc requires now po-debconf to build in order to allow translating
debconf screens
3.2) Updated description fields fixing bad English and rephrasing in
order to make text clearer.
4) fpc-2.6.0/debian/copyright.in: Fixed typo preventing correct update
of upstream release sources. This file is used to automatically generate
fpc-2.6.0/debian/copyright upon build process.
5) fpc-2.6.0/debian/fp-compiler.templates.in: Updated description fields
fixing bad English and rephrasing in order to make text clearer.
6) fpc-2.6.0/debian/po/POTFILES.in: Added file required by po-debconf
7) fpc-2.6.0/debian/po/templates.pot: Added file required by po-debconf
8) Translation files (*.po were removed from debdiff)

As you can see, the modifications are limited to description text update
and fixes, increasing quality of the package without any potential risk
on the package or other packages stability.

Can you please unblock this upload as internationalization support is
considered as un important goal of the release?

unblock fpc/2.6.0-7

Cheers;

+ and Turbo Pascal 7.0 dialects, as well as Mac Pascal dialects. It provides a
+ completely portable RunTime Library (RTL) available on many platforms and
+ compatible with Turbo Pascal, along with a platform-independent class-based
+ Free Component Library (FCL) adding many Delphi extensions and interfacing
+ with many popular open source libraries.
+ .
+ This dependency package always depends on the latest available version of
+ the package containing Free Pascal math interfacing units for:
+  * gmp (the GNU Multiple Precision arithmetic library);
+  * numlib (numerical computing);
+  * proj4 (cartographic projections);
+  * symbolic (symbolic computing).

-Description: Do you want to rename "/etc/fpc.cfg" to "/etc/fpc.cfg.bak"?
- FPC supports now multiple version installations. This allows co-existence of
- multiple versions on the same system. The default version can be selected using
- the update-alternatives command for the following groups:
-     1)fpc      : compiler default version
-     2)fpc.cfg  : configuration file default version
-     3)fp-utils : helper tools default version
