I think, the best would be to rename the file in a Debian-specific patch, =
yes=2E

Don't know, if there is some documentation specifically about this=2E

I guess, that upstream probably uses Weblate for translation, a web-based =
service, where translators can do translation work simply via a webbrowser=
=2E
I also saw that zh_Hant notation there=2E

Probably the use of Weblate is not that common currently, so that may be t=
he reason, why you don't find that issue in the archive yet=2E


It's sad, that you have an issue and extra work for a 0% translation file,=
 BTW=2E
