Lintian tag: translated-default-field
Type: warning
Description (from lintian-explain-tags
)
You should not mark as translatable "Default:" or "DefaultChoice:" fields,
unless explicitly needed (e.g. default country, default language, etc.).
If this Default field really should be translated, you should explain
translators how they should translate it by using comments or brackets.
For example:
# Translators: Default language name, but not translated
_Default: English
Or:
_Default: English[ Default language name, but not translated]
Note that in the first case, Lintian ignores the comment unless it
explicitly references translators and it is appears directly before the
field in question.
Please refer to the po-debconf(7) manual page and Bug#637881 for details.
