    From Christian Buhtz@21:1/5 to All on Tue Mar 4 14:50:01 2025
    Package: dl10n
    Version: 3.00+nmu1
    Severity: important
    Tags: l10n

    The docu about using "dl10n-check" is not complete and therefore "dl10n-check" can not be used.

    See the following example and have a look to the second line starting with "Syntax: ". There the placeholder "[action]" is shown. But there is no action described in the rest of that usage output.

    $ dl10n-check
    dl10n-check: Nothing to do !
    Syntax: /usr/bin/dl10n-check [action] [options] [--] [package|path to the dist]+
    General options:
    -h, --help display short help text
    -v, --verbose verbose messages
    -V, --version display version and exit
    -d, --debug turn debug messages ON
    --print-version print unadorned version number and exit
    Behaviour options:
    --careful save the db file after each package proceeding
    -f, --force force check even if packages are up-to-date in db
    --force-material force check for any package containing material
    -u, --remove-unused remove packages not found in Packages files
    --mark-obsolete when extracting package data, add a .old suffix
    instead of deleting old files
    Configuration options:
    -F, --files-from=FILE reads dsc filenames from FILE
    --db=DB_FILE use DB_FILE as database file
    (instead of ./data/status)
    --mandb=DB_FILE use DB_FILE as database file for manpages
    (instead of ./data/transmonitorman)
    --tmp=TMP_DIR use TMP_DIR as temp dir
    (instead of /tmp/dl10n)
    (warning, the script do 'rm -rf' on this dir!)
    --po=PO_ROOT where to store the po files
    (instead of ./material/po)
    --templates=DIR where to store the debconf templates files
    (instead of ./material/templates)
    --menu=DIR where to store the menu files
    (instead of ./material/menu)
    --man=DIR where to store the man files
    (instead of ./material/man)
    --root=ROOTDIR search the libs in ROOTDIR
    (instead of ./)
