[Adduser-devel] Bug#670579: Announce of an upcoming upload for the adduser package

[David Prévot]

Dear maintainer of adduser and Debian translators,

Some days ago, I sent a notice to the maintainer of the adduser
Debian package, mentioning the status of at least one old
translation update in the BTS.

I announced the intent to build and possibly upload a non-maintainer
upload for this package in order to fix this long-time pending
localization bug as well as all other pending translations.

The package maintainer agreed for the NMU or did not respond in a week,
so I will proceed with the NMU.

The full planned schedule is available at the end of this mail.


The package (*runtime* messages) is currently translated to:
ca cs da de es eu fr hu it ja ko nb nl pl pt pt_BR ru sk sv uk vi zh_CN

Among these, the following translations are incomplete:

language        translated     fuzzy     untranslated
-----------------------------------------------------
  hu                44          57            13
  ko                13          56            45
  pl               113           1
  uk                98          10             6


The package *documentation* (po4a-based) is currently translated to:
de es fr it pl pt pt_BR ru sv

Among these, the following translation is incomplete:

language        translated     fuzzy     untranslated
-----------------------------------------------------
  pt_BR            166          39            18


Finally, the *po-debconf* templates are currently translated to:
ar be ca cs da de el es eu fi fr gl hy it ja ko lt nb nl pl pt pt_BR ro
ru sk sr sr at latin sv tr uk vi zh_CN

Among these, the following translation is incomplete:

language        translated     fuzzy     untranslated
-----------------------------------------------------
  el                 0           3
  hy                 0           3
  lt                 0           3
  tr                 0           3
  uk                 0           3


If you did any of the, currently incomplete, translations you will get
*another* mail with the translation to update.

Other translators also have the opportunity to create new translations
for this package. Once completed, please send them as a bug report
against the adduser package so I can incorporate them in the build.

The deadline for receiving updates and new translations is Sunday, May
13, 2012. If you are not in time you can always send your translation to
the BTS.

The respective POT files are available online:
http://www.debian.org/international/l10n/po/pot#adduser
http://www.debian.org/international/l10n/po4a/pot#adduser
http://www.debian.org/international/l10n/po-debconf/pot#adduser

If the maintainer objects to this process I will immediately abort my
NMU and send him/her all updates I receive.

Otherwise the following will happen (or already has):

 Thursday, April 26, 2012     :	send the first intent to NMU notice to
				the package maintainer.
 Thursday, May 03, 2012       :	send this notice.
 Sunday, May 13, 2012	      :	deadline for receiving translation
				updates.
 Monday, May 14, 2012	      :	build the package and upload it to
			DELAYED/15-day, send the NMU patch to the BTS.
 Tuesday, May 29, 2012	      :	NMU reaches incoming.

Regards

David
