the quoted policy 3.9.1 does IMHO not affect needrestart since it is not a
maintainer script. Since it does not violate the policy (IMHO) I've changed
the bug's severity to minor.

I've prepared the debconf templates to be processed by po-debconf using
debconf-gettextize. Patrick needs to do the packaging part to make it work.

I'm not a debconf/i18n/l10n expert, but from my understanding it should make
the debconf UI part translatable.


Thanks & HTH,
Thomas
