[Bug 1743251] Re: Wrong translation in German man page for adduser

 

Thanks for your report!

This kind of translation is upstream (Debian) by nature. I think the
best way to correct it is to open a Debian bug and attach a modified PO
file to that bug report.

This is the PO file:

https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/adduser/adduser.git/tree/doc/po4a/po/de.po

Title:
  Wrong translation in German man page for adduser

Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  In the German version of the man page for `adduser` (provided by the
  package `adduser` in version `3.113+nmu3ubuntu4`, though it's also
  present in version `3.113+nmu3ubuntu5`) we have

  > Einen System-Benutzer einrichten
        Wird  adduser  ohne  die Option --system und mit einem nicht optionalen Argument aufgerufen, richtet adduser einen System-Benutzer ein.

  but in the English version it says

  > Add a system user
        If called with one non-option argument and the --system option, adduser will add a system user. 

  So the error is the text "ohne die" (without) which should be replaced
  by "mit der" (with).
