[cl-debian] Bug#457025: gcl: General update after the debconf review process

Thu Jan 10 05:40:43 UTC 2008

Dear Debian maintainer,

On Friday, November 30, 2007, I sent you a notification about the beginning of a review
action on debconf templates for gcl.

Then, I sent you a bug report with rewritten templates and announcing
the beginning of the second phase of this action: call for translation
updates.

Translators have been working hard and here is now the result of their efforts.

Please consider using it EVEN if you committed files to your
development tree as long as they were reported.

The attached tarball contains:

- debian/changelog with the list of changes
- debian/control with rewrites of packages' descriptions
- debian/<templates> with all the rewritten templates file(s)
- debian/po/*.po with all PO files (existing ones and new ones)

As said, please use *at least* the PO files as provided here,
preferrably over those sent by translators in their bug reports. All
of them have been checked and reformatted. In some cases, formatting
errors have been corrected.

The patch.rfr file contains a patch for the templates and control
file(s) alone.

Please note that this patch applies to the templates and control
file(s) of your package as of Friday, November 30, 2007. If your package was updated
in the meantime, I may have updated my reference copy....but I also
may have missed that. This is indeed why I suggested you do not
modified such files while the review process was running,
remember..:-)

It is now safe to upload a new package version with these changes.

Please notify me of your intents with regards to this. 

There is of course no hurry to update your package but feel free to
contact me in case you would need sponsoring or any other action to
fix this.

+_Description: Use the work-in-progress ANSI build by default?
  GCL is in the process of providing an ANSI compliant image in addition to
- its traditional CLtL1 image still in production use.  Please see the
- README.Debian file for a brief description of these terms.  Setting this
- variable will determine which image you will use by default on executing
- 'gcl at EXT@'.  You can locally override this choice by setting the GCL_ANSI
+ its traditional CLtL1 image still in production use.

+ when executing 'gcl at EXT@'.
+ .
+ This setting may be overridden by setting the GCL_ANSI
  environment variable to any non-empty string for the ANSI build, and to
- the empty string for the CLtL1 build, e.g. GCL_ANSI=t gcl at EXT@.  The
- flavor of the build in force will be reported in the initial startup

 Template: gcl at EXT@/default_gcl_prof
 Type: boolean
 _Description: Use the profiling build by default?
- GCL now has optional support for profiling via gprof.  Please see the
- documentation
- for si::gprof-start and si::gprof-quit for details. As this build is slower
- than builds without gprof support, it is not recommended for final production use.
- You can locally override the default choice made here
- by setting the
- GCL_PROF environment variable to any non-empty string for profiling
- support, and to the empty string for the more optimized builds, e.g.
- GCL_PROF=t gcl at EXT@.  If profiling is enabled, this will be reported in
- the initial startup banner.
