Hi,
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1074052
<snip>
The package debian-history is handled by the publicity team.
<snip>
But it needs to be uploaded to unstable so the website scripts get it from
there, unpack it and build the corresponding website pages.
I am working on https://salsa.debian.org/publicity-team/debian-history , in
order to get the upcoming Debian 13 "trixie" release shipping a decently up to
date version of that package. The work should be finished before the end of
this year, I guess. (No dates have been picked yet for
https://release.debian.org/testing/freeze_policy.html#transition .)

Current uploaders Bdale Garbee, Osamu Aoki and/or Javier Fernández-Sanguino
Peña: I took the liberty to add myself to Uploaders. Is that OK with you?


Also, our translations are out of date:

Since 2019, there has not been any update of

es fr ja lt ru

. Since 2022, there has not been any update of

it ko

. Luckily, pretty much up to date are:

de pt

. See also https://i18n.debian.org/l10n-pkg-status/d/debian-history.html for
some details. I plan to contact the last translators and/or some relevant list
& ask for updates there. Or could I better not do that and do we have some
automated infrastructure in place for such notifications?

Third, and last:

For some reason, under current sid, with current package as in git,
project-history.fr.pdf fails to build (all other translated .pdf's build fine).
I'll keep working on fixing this; however, any help here would be very much
appreciated.

Thanks for your time!

Bye,

Joost

Just in case you did not notice:

That's not specific to debian-history, it's the toolchain (dblatex, ...), which is
broken.

Several manuals have just received FTBFS bugs, often with French PDFs failing
to build.

Yes I know, thanks anyway.
