Of course, Joey knows... The following packages are document package. So it looks no problem on Debian. I find many 'manpages-*' on Debian. They are separated document packages and don't purpose to merge. joey> Package: user-ja joey> Package: xmanpages-ja joey> Package: dpkg-doc-ja joey> Package: emacs-lisp-intro-ja joey> Package: elisp-manual-ja joey> Package: doc-linux-ja joey> Package: manpages-ja joey> Package: emacs-manual-ja Then, following packages have possible to merge. joey> Package: mh-ja mh-ja will not cause any problem on English environment.I think original mh maintainer can adopt ja patched version. joey> Package: a2ps-perl-ja There isn't a2ps or a2ps-perl on Debian. So it can rename a2ps-perl. a2ps-perl-ja will not cause any problem on English environment. joey> Package: locale-ja Yes, We want glibc contains locale-ja.

I think original Tcl/Tk maintainer can adopt ja patched version. I heard new Tcl/Tk will implement Unicode support. If so, we haven't to make ja patched version. joey> Package: slang1-ja Hmm, I heard this has some difference from original version. joey> Package: xjed-ja joey> Package: jed-sl-ja joey> Package: jed-ja joey> Package: jed-common-ja joey> Package: slrn-ja joey> Package: mutt-ja These packages depends 'slang1-ja'... I'm checking patches which remain on Debian-JP now. I'll report "There is a Japanese support patch (or I18N patch), Please merge it". -- Kenshi Muto kmuto@debian.org http://www.debian.org/~kmuto/
