tags 389261 + l10n patch thanks Steinar Gunderson (sesse) has produced a patch for this issue which I have successfully tested. As I understand it, "fetching" translations will not work if they are defined in a static const struct. This is resolved by defining them in the struct with the no-op "N_" and doing the actual translation later. After applying the patch; updating the PO-files, translating the relevant strings for Dutch and compiling the new version, the output now looks as follows. When running tasksel, the strings now also show translated. Pakketlijsten worden ingelezen... Boom van vereisten wordt opgebouwd... Uitgebreide statusinformatie aan het lezen...
