* doc/po4a/po/fr.po: Update the French translation of the manpages. Thanks
to Florentin Duneau.

one translatable Choices field. Report and patch by Thomas Huriaux, thanks.
Closes: #368984
* podebconf-display-po: Use File::Temp::tempfile() so that temporary files
are not created in the current directory, so that this program can be
run from a nn-writable directory. Suggested by Florentin Duneau, thanks.
* debian/control: Move po4a from Build-Depends-Indep to Build-Depends
because it is called by the 'clean' target.

po-debconf (1.0.1) unstable; urgency=low
* debconf-gettextize: Spaces were trimmed down when invoked with --merge
--choices flags, and translations were thus fuzzy. Closes: #365576
Thanks Christian Perrier.
* debian/control: Bump Standards-Version: 3.7.0, no changes are needed.
* debian/control: As told by lintian, replace Build-Depends-Indep: debhelper

po-debconf (1.0) unstable; urgency=low
* debconf2pot: Drop this program, "debconf-updatepo --skip-merge" does
the same job.
* po2debconf: Do no more run debconf-updatepo if outdated PO files
are detected. po-debconf(7) already explains why this was not
a good idea.
* debconf-gettextize: Cleanup, remove -l/-n/-o flags.
* debconf-gettextize: Add a --choices flag to generate __Choices fields
in the master template file.
* debconf-gettextize: New --merge flag, to merge translations with
existing PO files.
* Depend on intltool-debian >= 0.34.1+20060220.
With this version, comments in the form '#flag:' are interpreted by
debconf-updatepo and po2debconf. They are helpful when a translatable
field is composed of several strings. Recognized keywords are:
- #flag:translate:
Write only the specified strings into PO files. Closes: #330096
Thanks Colin Watson.
- #flag:comment:
Comments can be defined for each individual string.
- #flag:partial
This flag prints translated strings even if they are not fully
translated. Closes: #230838 Thanks Christian Perrier.
See details in po-debconf(7).
* This version of intltool-debian also ensures that po2debconf properly
removes comments when they appear at the top or bottom of template
files, which should not occur though.
* podebconf-display-po: Add support for Title type. Report and patch
by Thomas Huriaux, thanks. Closes: #354583
* podebconf-report-po: Sort PO files.
* Add Build-Depends-Indep: po4a.
* Drop debian/README.Debian which was obsolete.

po-debconf (0.9.2) unstable; urgency=low
* doc/po-debconf.7.pod: Improve the "Update templates" section to
explain that debconf-updatepo needs to be run manually, or better
called from the 'clean' target of debian/rules, so that PO files
shipped in source packages are up-to-date. Closes: #338998
Thanks Thomas Huriaux.
* doc/fr/po-debconf.fr.7.pod doc/ru/po-debconf.ru.7.pod: Update
* podebconf-report-po: If package version number can be found in
debian/changelog, put it into mail's subject so that translators
can update their PO header field if they want to. Closes: #329546
Thanks Clytie Siddal and Christian Perrier.

years ago, so the transition phase is over.
* Add Russian man pages. Closes: #337750
Many thanks to Yuri Kozlov.
* debian/control: Drop dependencies on libmime-base64-perl, this package
had been merged with perl in sarge.

po-debconf (0.9.0) unstable; urgency=low
* po2debconf: Default output encoding is now UTF-8, which means that
if your package has a debian/po/output containing '2 utf8', you
can remove this file and depends on 'po-debconf (>= 0.9.0)' to
achieve the same result.
* debconf-updatepo: Speed up merging PO files by calling msgmerge
directly instead of intltool-update.
* debconf-updatepo debconf2pot: Do no more modify templates.pot header
comment.
* debconf-updatepo: If a 'control' file is found in the parent directory
of PO files. put its Maintainer field into the Report-Msgid-Bugs-To
header field of templates.pot. Since po-debconf 0.7.0, this file is
updated only when its content has changed (in order to prevent unneeded
commits), so Report-Msgid-Bugs-To will be updated only when some msgids
are modified. You can remove templates.pot before running
debconf-updatepo if you want to add this field to all your PO files.
Note also that this works only with intltool-debian >= 0.34.1+2005082.
* po2debconf: Replace iconv by msgconv to recode PO files when encoding
is set to 'popular'.
* debian/control: Depends on gettext >= 0.12 because debconf-updatepo and
po2debconf now rely on features added into this version.
* podebconf-report-po: Document the --gzip flag in the --help output.
Closes: #313280
* debian/control: Bump Standards-Version: 3.6.2

* podebconf-report-po: Fix PO header parsing when fields are splitted
onto several lines. Closes: #302592
Thanks to Christian Perrier for reporting this bug.
* podebconf-report-po: Add an X-Mail-Originator field containing the
version number of this script; this may help debugging when problems
arise.
* podebconf-display-po: This script displays translated strings only if
user's environment is localized. This restriction is added into the
documentation.
* podebconf-display-po: PO file has previously to be named <lang_code>.po;
this restriction is removed, PO files can have any name. Closes: #301199

and environment variable DEBEMAIL is set, use this value as mail
sender. Thanks Christian Perrier for this suggestion.
Closes: #288532
* podebconf-report-po: Add --submit/--bts command line flags. The
former file a bugreport, and the latter send usual notices to
translators and inform them that they can send their translations
to the given bugreport. Thanks again Christian Perrier for this
suggestion. Closes: #288533
* podebconf-report-po: Mail headers can be modified when editing mail
body, this is explained by comments on top of the body message.
* podebconf-report-po: 8bit characters are replaced by question marks
in mail headers. This does not fix #292815, but at least generated
mails are no more invalid.

translated templates have no Type fields. Closes: #234816
Thanks Martin Quinson
* Bump dependency: intltool-debian (>= 0.30+20040211)
to prevent generation of broken templates files if comments appear
juste above a Template: line.
* po2debconf: Make warning and error messages more coherent.
Better handling of temporary files.
* Official language code for Norwegian Bokmål is redefined from "no"
to "nb". Petter Reinholdtsen asked on debian-edu@l.d.o. that
po-debconf helps this transition; po2debconf now prints a warning
if no.po exists (and generates Field-no localized fields), and when
nb.po is found both -nb and -no localized fields are generated.
Norwegian translators are thus encouraged to rename their no.po
files into nb.po to provide the best support for users.
Closes: #235756
* po2debconf.1: A note written by Petter Reinholdtsen about the above
issue is added to documentation. French documentation is updated.

po-debconf (0.8.7) unstable; urgency=low
* podebconf-display-po: C escapes were not removed from displayed
strings. In order not to be bugged by stateful encodings, PO
files are converted to UTF-8 with msgconv. If this program is
not found, PO file encoding is untouched.

po-debconf (0.8.3) unstable; urgency=low
* Depends on intltool-debian (>= 0.27.2+20031023) so that template
type is added as a comment in PO files. Automatic comments in
PO files previously looked like
#. Comments extracted from source files
#. Description
and now
#. Type: select
#. Description
#. Comments extracted from source files
Author comments are the most important part, so put it near English
text to catch translators' attention.
* debconf-updatepo debconf2pot: Set INTLTOOL_DEBIAN_TYPE=po-debconf
to print template type in PO files.
* podebconf-display-po: New utility to launch a debconf interface
based on templates found in a PO file. Translators can then check
their translations before sending them.
* doc/po-debconf.7.pod: Clarify how to mark Default fields as being
translatable, previous version was somewhat incorrect.
* doc/fr/po-debconf.7.fr.po: Translation update.

* debian/README.Debian: New file containing more detailed
explanations about the above. Suggested by Andreas Metzler, thanks.
* po-debconf(7): Update documentation to tell that comments
can be inserted in templates files and copied into PO files.
Thus add Depends: intltool-debian >= 0.27.2+20031003 to make
sure that it does work as written in the documentation.
Previous intltool-debian versions silently discard these comments,
there is then no need to add a versioned build dependency against
po-debconf when using this new feature.
* Update French documentation.
* po2debconf: Better error message when iconv fails
* Bump Standards-Version: 3.6.1 (no changes needed)

* debconf-updatepo: debian/po/templates.pot was generated for each
language, it is now generated only once. When --verbose flag is
set, statistics are more readable.
* debconf-updatepo: POT file will be renamed later into debian.pot
because doc-base and other packages might want to use these tools.
In order to provide backward compatibility, if debian.pot does
exist, it is updated; otherwise templates.pot is used.

po-debconf (0.6.4) unstable; urgency=low
* po2debconf: When applied to an already merged templates file,
translations were dropped when language code contains an underscore.
-- Denis Barbier <barbier@debian.org> Mon, 10 Mar 2003 01:12:05 +0100
po-debconf (0.6.3) unstable; urgency=low
* po2debconf: Error messages reported by intltool-merge did appear in
generated templates file because intltool-merge sends its error
messages to stdout; redirect them to stderr.
A better solution is to fix intltool-* scripts, a bugreport has been
sent to upstream.
(Closes: #179347) Thanks Joey Hess

po-debconf (0.6.2) unstable; urgency=low
* debconf2pot debconf-updatepo po2debconf: LC_CTYPE must also be unset
to work around Perl new behavior wrt. UTF-8 locales.
Thanks Jerome Marant.

po-debconf (0.6.1) unstable; urgency=low
* debconf2pot debconf-updatepo: An extra space was added after newlines
when lines are not reformatted.
-- Denis Barbier <barbier@debian.org> Thu, 19 Dec 2002 00:45:48 +0100
po-debconf (0.6.0) unstable; urgency=low
* Internal change: In order to prepare doc-base support,
intltool-merge now adds encoding in localized fields, and
po2debconf removes them when output format < 2.
* When field value is a comma separated list, an extra leading
underscore tells po-debconf that items have to be put in
separate msgids. This is a new localized field format, there
is no reason to convert all _Choices field to __Choices, but if
their value changes quite often, it may ease translator's life.
(Closes: Bug#171649)
* po2debconf: Fix a bug when dealing with extra text used to make
msgids unique, it was removed too early.
-- Denis Barbier <barbier@debian.org> Fri, 13 Dec 2002 23:24:32 +0100
po-debconf (0.5.4) unstable; urgency=low
* Remove dependency against perl >= 5.8. Adrian Bunk pointed out
that File::Spec is shipped in woody, and debconf-gettextize has
been slightly changed not to require Perl 5.8 at all.
But gettext 0.11 is still needed by debconf-gettextize.
* po2debconf: sort intltool-merge command line flags.
* encodings: ro charset is assumed to be ISO-8859-2 instead of
ISO-8859-16. Thanks to Bela, who translated adduser template.
* intltool scripts: upgrade to latest CVS.
* RFC822 files can now have a tab at first column, it is treated
as a normal space; this is intended for doc-base support.
* --name is a new command line flag of pod2man, so do not use it
in doc/Makefile until sarge is released.
(Closes: Bug#172071) Thanks Petter Reinholdtsen
* Fix typos in po-debconf(7)
(Closes: Bug#171803) Thanks Jordi Mallach
-- Denis Barbier <barbier@debian.org> Sat, 7 Dec 2002 13:25:55 +0100
po-debconf (0.5.3) unstable; urgency=low
* debconf-gettextize: duplicated messages were deleted, now they
are taken into account with the first translation encountered.
-- Denis Barbier <barbier@debian.org> Sun, 24 Nov 2002 22:38:33 +0100
po-debconf (0.5.2) unstable; urgency=low
Martin Quinson:
* Rename debconf2po-update into debconf-updatepo. A soft link is
provided to ease transition.
* The README file has been rewritten, and put in po-debconf(7)
-- Denis Barbier <barbier@debian.org> Tue, 12 Nov 2002 23:54:33 +0100
po-debconf (0.5.1) unstable; urgency=low
* debconf2po-update: Abort when templates.pot file is not created,
and remove some superfluous output.
(Closes: Bug#166112, #166114, #166115) Thanks Branden Robinson.
* debconf-gettextize debconf2po-update debconf2pot: Make header text
more descriptive in POT and PO files.
* debconf2pot: Fix for multiple input files.
* debconf2po-update: When there are no *.po files, do not abort but
call debconf2pot in order to generate templates.pot.
* intltool-extract: Remove warning about multiply defined msgids.
* When locale is set to UTF-8, Perl reads and writes UTF-8 data, and there
seems to be no way to make it read bytes instead of chars. For this
reason, LANGUAGE, LANG and LC_ALL environment variables are unset.
Thanks Martin Sjogren.
-- Denis Barbier <barbier@debian.org> Tue, 29 Oct 2002 22:38:48 +0100
po-debconf (0.5.0) unstable; urgency=low
* po2debconf:
+ Replace --encoding=traditional by --encoding=popular.
+ Default output value is set to 2, which means that
Description-de.ISO-8859-1 or Choices-ru.KOI8-R fields are printed
instead of Description-de and Choices-ru.
+ When po or UTF-8 encoding is used, always set output value to 2.
(Closes: Bug#163597) Thanks Tomohiro Kubota.
+ Format may also be specified in debian/output file, e.g.
echo '2 utf8' > po/output
* debconf2po-update: POTFILES.in was searched in directories
po:debian/po:../po in that order, and now in debian/po:po:../po
* Update intltool scripts with latest CVS
* intltool-extract: In PO and POT files, sentences in a multi-paragraph
string were not displayed in input order.

po-debconf (0.4.7) unstable; urgency=low
* Remove dependency against GNU libc, since this is a required package
and all ports use it.
-- Denis Barbier <barbier@debian.org> Sun, 6 Oct 2002 20:42:36 +0200
po-debconf (0.4.6) unstable; urgency=low
* Replace Depends: libc6 by libc6|libc6.1|libc0.3 in debian/control.
so that po-debconf is installable on alpha, ia64 and hurd-i386.
(Closes: Bug#163507) Thanks Ryan Murray.
-- Denis Barbier <barbier@debian.org> Sun, 6 Oct 2002 18:55:57 +0200
po-debconf (0.4.5) unstable; urgency=low
* README: Improve documentation. * debconf-gettextize: Minor change in output message.
-- Denis Barbier <barbier@debian.org> Sat, 5 Oct 2002 17:07:57 +0200
po-debconf (0.4.4) unstable; urgency=low
* debconf-gettextize: When there are multiple input files, some
messages could be multiply defined. Thus msguniq is called
to remove duplicates (shipped with gettext >= 0.11).
* debconf-gettextize: Fuzzy entries were marked with '#. fuzzy' instead
of '#, fuzzy'. PO files generated by previous versions should be
manually checked to perform this substitution.
-- Denis Barbier <barbier@debian.org> Fri, 4 Oct 2002 22:08:36 +0200
po-debconf (0.4.3) unstable; urgency=low
* po2debconf: Text::Wrap was producing wrong output with some master
templates files because $Text::Wrap::break had an incorrect value
in /usr/share/po-debconf/intltool-merge
(Closes: Bug#163160) Thanks Joey Hess.
-- Denis Barbier <barbier@debian.org> Thu, 3 Oct 2002 19:17:45 +0200
po-debconf (0.4.2) unstable; urgency=low
* Upload to unstable since there has been no bug reported since 0.4.0,
and po-debconf seems now quite mature.
* debconf2pot: Without argument, default input file is templates and
not _templates.
* Various doc fixes.
-- Denis Barbier <barbier@debian.org> Tue, 1 Oct 2002 21:21:38 +0200
po-debconf (0.4.1) experimental; urgency=low
* debconf-gettextize: It was broken when arguments are in another
directory. The File::Spec module is used in order to call the
abs2rel method, which implies that po-debconf depends upon
perl >= 5.8.0.
Since debconf-gettextize is only run by developers, translators
may backport po-debconf to woody.
-- Denis Barbier <barbier@debian.org> Sat, 28 Sep 2002 21:03:47 +0200
po-debconf (0.4.0) experimental; urgency=low
* Rename _templates into templates in order to help developers migrating
to po-debconf format. (Closes: Bug#161372) Thanks Joey Hess.
* debconf-gettextize:
+ Accept several master files as arguments, and thus -F flag is
removed because it is useless.
+ Add short option for --lang and --new-templates.
+ The --lang flag can be set more than once to specify several
languages.
+ Run debconf2po-update when finishing, unless -n flag is used.
* po2debconf:
+ Replace -n, -u and -E flags by -e. This new option sets encoding
conversion, arguments is taken amongst: po (no conversion), utf8
(convert to UTF-8) and traditional (convert to legacy encoding).
The latter is the default until sarge is released, then default
will be utf8.
+ -O flag is obsolete, output format may be changed by the
debian/po/output file. Localized fields are written foo-xx, and
foo-xx.enc if debian/po/output contain 2.
When sarge is released, default will be 2 and backports only need to
echo 1 > debian/po/output
* Split man pages so that each program has its own one.
* debian/control: Remove dependency against debhelper, in order to
let debhelper depends upon po-debconf if dh_installdebconf needs to
call po2debconf. Thus dh_installpodebconf is no more installed.
* debconf-gettextize po2debconf: Prevent line break between spaces,
because a wrapped line beginning with a space cannot be reformatted.
This is a release candidate for moving away from experimental, next
upload will go to unstable unless major changes are needed.
-- Denis Barbier <barbier@debian.org> Sun, 22 Sep 2002 23:56:23 +0200
po-debconf (0.3.2) experimental; urgency=low
* New README-trans file with instructions for translators.
* po2debconf: As explained in README-trans, developers are encouraged
to replace in their _templates files _Default by _DefaultChoice when
template type is Select or Multiselect so that translators are warned
they must not translate this string, but instead change its value taken
from original Choices list. Thus po2debconf must revert this change,
since debconf does not recognize this field.
* intltool-extract: Fix line numbers
* debconf2pot: Add comments in POT file
* debconf-gettextize: Change default PO directory, it is now
`dirname $1`/po
* debconf2po-update: search PO directory in ./po, debian/po and ../po
-- Denis Barbier <barbier@debian.org> Sat, 21 Sep 2002 00:42:23 +0200
po-debconf (0.3.1) experimental; urgency=low
* intltool-extract intltool-merge: When reformatting paragraphs,
replace newline by a space, even if last char was already a
space char.
Then a space char is no more gobbled when a final dot appears at
end of line. On the other hand, spacing is now wrong if there
was extra trailing whitespace characters, but there is no universal
solution, so do not try to fix broken input.
* encodings: Update, thanks to Tomohiro Kubota.
* po2debconf: Change default PO directory, it is now `dirname $1`/po
so that po2debconf can be called from any directory.
(Closes: Bug#161371) Thanks Joey Hess.
* debconf-gettextize: If a language has no predefined encoding, rename
PO file into ll.po.unknown in order not to break further processing.
(Closes: Bug#161373) Thanks Joey Hess.
-- Denis Barbier <barbier@debian.org> Thu, 19 Sep 2002 01:50:25 +0200
po-debconf (0.3.0) experimental; urgency=low
* po2debconf: print text in the new Field-ll_LL.ENCODING format
introduced by debconf 1.2.0.
Old format is still available with the -O flag.
* po2debconf: -u is the default, and -n prevents conversion to UTF-8
* debconf-gettextize: automatically determine charset of PO files
* debconf-gettextize: accept new debconf format in input files.
Of course all these new features are highly experimental and not
well tested.
* debconf-gettextize: do not print localized fields in _templates files
-- Denis Barbier <barbier@debian.org> Tue, 17 Sep 2002 22:09:18 +0200
po-debconf (0.2.4) experimental; urgency=low
* Martin Sjogren asked being able to transform his UTF-8 templates
files into legacy encoding in order to be used by debconf.
This is achieved with -E flag of po2debconf. (Closes: #161041)
* Fix debconf-gettextize usage, it only accepts a single master file.
-- Denis Barbier <barbier@debian.org> Mon, 16 Sep 2002 22:32:48 +0200
po-debconf (0.2.3) experimental; urgency=low
* Replace 'Encoding: utf-8' by 'Encoding: UTF-8', since this is
the canonical name in glibc.
* Add a README file.

po-debconf (0.2.2) experimental; urgency=low
* update intltool scripts for latest CVS.
* As suggested by Joey Hess, po2debconf supports a new --utf8 flag
which adds a 'Encoding: utf-8' line and convert all strings into
utf-8.
* Add a dependency against libc6 because iconv is needed by this
new flag.
