Package: adduser
Version: 3.77
Severity: normal

with the re-work, we broke some things regarding verbosity:

 * verbose, quiet and debug seem to be orthogonal, and should probably
   be handled by a single variable $verbose which can have numeric values.
 * currently, $verbose can only have the values 0 and 1, while
   systemcall outputs debug information if $verbose==2, which can never
   happen.
 * Adduser uses direct system() calls in some places with explicit
   verbose handling. Thse should probably be replaced by systemcall().

Greetings
Marc

   [ Marc Haber ]
   * Changes suggested by Denis Barbier
     * po/Makefile: move -c down from xgettext definition to the actual call
     * po/Makefile: Use a SOURCES variable. The old version caused
       strings from deluser to be discarded.
     * deluser: make generation of copyright message more translation
       friendly
     * hack gtx wrapper to not only export the first string into the
       POT file.
   * Add Brazilian Portuguese (pt_BR) manpage translation. Thanks to
     Felipe Augusto van de Wiel. (mh)
   * Add Portuguese (pt) debconf translation by Miguel Figueiredo and
     Marco Ferra. (mh) Close: #336332
   * Update French (fr) manpage translation. Thanks to
     Thomas Huriaux. (mh) Closes: #336200
   * Update Russian (ru) manpage, program and debconf template translation.
     Thanks to Yuri Kozlov. (mh) Closes: #337080
   * Fix typo in deluser.conf.5, hopefully without fuzzying
     translations. Thanks to Felipe Augusto van de Wiel and to Thomas
     Huriaux. (mh)
   * remove wrong pt_PT manpage translation. (mh)
   * Polish (pl) translation work by Robert Luberda. (mh) Closes: #335926
     * initial man page translation
     * updated translation of program
     * updated translation of debconf templates
     * debian/control: replace manpages-pl
     * debian/rules + doc/po4a/po4a.conf: add support for Polish man pages
     * debian/scripts/install_manpages: fail if the man file can't be
       created
     * debian/rules: correct man pages location for es and ru translations.
 .
   [ Joerg Hoh ]
   * stricter checking on variables in configuration files (inspired by
     #130751)
   * documented --debug in adduser.8
   * streamlined verbosity code, replaced calls to system() with systemcall()
     (Closes: #336841), also changed the definition of the environment
     variable VERBOSE; DEBUG is deprecated now (but still defined).
