Hallo Christian,
I'm aware of the current translation bugs. But please do not a NMU at
this time.
Well I wanted to bring the current version to drizzle first avoiding
"resetting" the clock again by the po inclusion.
Today I managed to make an NMU for gearman-interface, which is currently
in DELAY/2. When I understood it correctly, it is the package currently
blocking gearmand, (as it has a dependency on an old version of
libgearman), and the only thing missing is the aging of tokyocabinet,
which I NMU'ed March 1st... So I hope drizzle will be entering testing
around March 11.
My plans are to have either (preferred option) the new upstream version
ready at this date or as a second option a package which includes all
available translations.
If you have any comments or questions, please let me know.
