Some notes for translators
==========================
There are three directories containing translations:
po/
Contains the phrases used in the tasksel program.
tasks/po/
Contain the phrases used in (a few of) the tasks themselves.
debian/po/
Contains the debconf templates.
Your language should be listed in LANGS and LANGS_DESC variables
in Makefile. (LANGS is for translations in po/, and LANGS_DESC
is for translations in tasks/po/.)
You should also translate the Descriptions of the task-* packages.
These are shown to the user when tasksel runs, so are actually
the most important thing to translate. This can be done via the
The Debian Description Translation Project:
<http://www.debian.org/intl/l10n/ddtp>
When translating the Descriptions, the ones that matter are those
tasks that are displayed to the user. Translating the Descriptions
of the language-specific tasks, which are not shown to the user,
is not a priority.
