[snip] Pah, let's require all maintainers to be able to fix all translation-bugs on their own. It should be a requirement to be fluent in all nuances of all languages to be a maintainer. Right? I mean, you must be able to fix any bug in the package just because you NMU a new translation, so you better be able to fix any translation-bug if you fix a memory-leak, right?
