Dear Maintainer,

There is a translation problem in Chinese release notes for Debian 11, section 4.1.1 (Back up any data or configuration information).

The English version is (accessed at https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/amd64/release-notes/ch-upgrading.en.html ):
 The main things you'll want to back up are the contents of /etc, /var/lib/dpkg, /var/lib/apt/extended_states and the output of dpkg --get-selections "*" (the quotes are important). If you use aptitude to manage packages on your system, you will also want to back up /var/lib/aptitude/pkgstates.

The Chinese version is (accessed at https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/amd64/release-notes/ch-upgrading.zh-cn.html ):
 您需要备份的内容主要包括 /etc、/var/lib/dpkg、/var/lib/aptitude/pkgstates 下的文件,以及 dpkg --get-selections "*" 命令的输出(命令行中的引号必须要有)。如果您使用 aptitude 来管理系统上的软件包,您还需要备份 /var/lib/aptitude/pkgstates。

The third path mentioned in the first sentence should be /var/lib/aptitude/pkgstates , but is /var/lib/aptitude/pkgstates in the Chinese translation.

In my opinion, the correct translation is:
 您需要备份的内容主要包括 /etc、/var/lib/dpkg、/var/lib/apt/extended_states 下的文件,以及 dpkg --get-selections "*" 命令的输出(命令行中的引号必须要有)。如果您使用 aptitude 来管理系统上的软件包,您还需要备份 /var/lib/aptitude/pkgstates。

Thank you.
