Re: xz-utils: List in long description is broken with LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8
Hi, Thomas Preud'homme wrote: > The list of improvements in the long description does not dispaly > correctly with LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8. Yep. I find in Translation-fr.bz2[1]: Le format XZ est similaire à l'ancien format LZMA mais propose certaines améliorations pour l'usage courant : . * « file » recette miracle pour détecter les fichiers XZ ; * contrôle d'intégrité des données crc64 ; versus the English version: The XZ format is similar to the older LZMA format but includes some improvements for general use: . * 'file' magic for detecting XZ files; * crc64 data integrity check; There ought to be a space before each list item to suppress line wrapping. Where should I report this? Thanks for your translation work. Often I find myself returning to the French translations of manpages when the English version is not clear enough, even though my mother tongue is English.

Otherwise, package managers and the web page will treat them as ordinary text and the list items run together without line breaks. In an ideal world, some lint-like program for package descriptions would notice this and offer to fix it automatically.

Neat trick. Won't that fail to build from source twice in a row because the gmo files change, though?

Yes, I tested that before. "diff" ignores deleted files. I'll try the "touch pot with patch" way this time.

Ok, I remembered wrong. :) It doesn't build twice in a row anyway because of other issues (autotools stuff), just as you hinted.
