[Pkg-mlmmj-devel] Intent to NMU mlmmj to fix pending po-debconf l10n bugs

[Thomas Goirand]

Hi Christian!

Thanks for the reminder.

Would you be able to send me a git format-patch
file against the package Git repo that is currently
in Git?

It'd be great if you could do that and NMU the fix,
since I'm busy with familly maters and my new born
son.

Cheers,

Thomas (from my phone)
