Hi,

I've nearly finished the Catalan translation. I expect you'll get it soon f=
rom a reviewer. However, I've found some =C2=ABissues=C2=BB that may need s=
ome attention:
- Hint 9: https://www.debian.org/doc/FAQ/ch-ftparchives.html#s-codenames do=
es not work for me. Should be replaced by https://www.debian.org/doc/manual=
s/debian-faq/ftparchives.en.html#codenames?
- Hint 11: is it still relevant? at https://www.debian.org/News/weekly/inde=
x.en.html currently there is just one, and rather old, new.=20
- Hint 13: has a link to https://www.debian.org/doc/FAQ/ch-pkg_basics.html =
that does not work for me. Could that mean https://www.debian.org/doc/manua=
ls/debian-faq/pkg-basics.en.html. And in that case the section numbers 6.13=
 and 6.14 be replaced by 7.13 and 7.14 respectively.
- Hint 22: deborphan is neither available in Trixie nor in testing
- Hint 30 is about sysvinit. Is it also still relevant?

Thanks.
