Package: nufw Severity: normal Tags: l10n patch (Hmmm, I just discover, after writing this whole bug report, that the maintainer is someone I know quite well...so, Jean-Michel, I think we will be able to handle this easily..:-))
The default values for several debconf templates you use are obviously not translatable. So they should not be marked so by removing the leading "_" character in the Choices: field in the templates file. This will lower the number of strings that translators have to translate. I also take this opportunity to suggest a few changes to the templates wording to make them more consistent with the style suggestions given in the developers reference. The most important (and really needed change) is removing the mention of "Choosing True/False" in the boolean template. Depending on hte interface, users do not choose between "True" and "False" but sometimes between "Yes" and "No"....or they check boxes. So, the devel reference clearly explains that debconf templates should not refer to specific user actions. The wording I suggest is the most appropriate wording in such case. I also added colons at the end of string and select short descriptions, which is the usual style for such cases. If you use this new templates file, please run debconf-updatepo and send the new templates.pot file back to me. The French translation team is currently working on the French translation and we will need this new templates.pot file. If you can, please wait for us to send the new translation, to avoid duplicate uploads. This may require a few days as this is a "big" translation and our QA process takes time. If you receive other translations in the meantime, they will be based on the "old" templates. In such case, please put the received file(s) in debian/po and re-run debconf-updatepo. Then send the received file back to the submitter so that (s)he can update it. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.9-1-686 Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to fr_FR.UTF-8)
Template: nufw/start_at_boot Type: boolean Default: true _Description: Should nufw daemon be started at boot time? Choose this option if you want Nufw to be automatically started at boot time. If you don't choose it, you can start nufw by hand, by running /usr/sbin/nufw with appropriate options. Template: nufw/verbosity Type: select Choices: v, vv, vvv, vvvv, vvvvv, vvvvvv, vvvvvvv, vvvvvvvv Default: vv _Description: Nufw daemon verbosity level: The more "v"s are passed at nufw startup, the more verbose daemon logs will be. A good production value is "vv", increase it to get more details in case of problems. Template: nufw/listen_address Type: string Default: 127.0.0.1 _Description: Nufw listening address: Nufw needs to bind to one IP address, to communicate with nuauth daemon. This is not an option, an address must always be listening. It is suggested to have it listening only on needed addresses, which means "127.0.0.1" is nuauth is installed on the same system as nufw, or an internal IP address in most cases. It is not advised to have nufw listen on all adresses, but it can be done specifiing "0.0.0.0". . Please input an IP address of this system. Default value is "127.0.0.1" Template: nufw/listen_port Type: string Default: 4129 _Description: Nufw listening port: Nufw needs to bind to an UDP port, to communicate with nuauth daemon. This is not an option, a port must always be listening. It is suggested you leave it at its default value (4129), which is very good for everyone (or nearly). Don't forget to reconfigure your nuauth installation, if you change this. . Please input a numeric port number. Template: nufw/nuauth_address Type: string Default: 127.0.0.1 _Description: Nuauth daemon IP address: Please enterthe IP address where the Nuauth daemon can be reached. If you run nufw and nuauth on the same box, leave it at default value of 127.0.0.1. Else enter an IP address. Template: nufw/nuauth_port Type: string Default: 4128 _Description: Nuauth daemon port: Please enter the port number nuauth is configured to listen on your installation. On most installations, the default value of 4128 will be correct. Please input a numeric port number. Template: nufw/timeout Type: string Default: 15 _Description: Nufw timeout delay: Please enter the delay Nufw should "forget" about an IP packet that has been received, and has remained unauthenticated. You probably don't need to tune this parameter, except if your queues are really full. The default value is 15. Please enter a number (which will be interpreted as seconds). Template: nufw/tracksize Type: string Default: 1000 _Description: Nufw Tracksize: This tracksize parameter is suitable for most configs, and should be changed only if you know what you are doing. Default value : 1000
