Bug#932905: release-notes: German translation of stretch 9.9 release notes is misleading

[Mike Grunweg]

Package: release-notes
Severity: normal
Tags: l10n

Dear Maintainer,

The problem
-----------
Access the German translation of the stretch 9.9 release notes, at
https://www.debian.org/News/2019/20190427.de.html.

The last sentence of the main section is mistranslated/misleading: It reads
"Wer etwas Anderes wie beispielsweise "apt" oder "aptitude" einsetzt, sollte
den "upgrade"-Befehl absetzen."

The word "absetzen" evokes connotations of medicine, i.e. in the meaning "stop
using this command". What is meant is to use the |upgrade| command.

Suggested solution
------------------
Change "absetzen" to any of "verwenden", "benutzen" or "einsetzen", which have
the correct meaning.


I am not sure if this is the right place to report the bug; if not, I would
appreciate a pointer to a better venue.

Cheers,
Mike
