[Pkg-openssl-devel] Bug#450418: openssl: Some parts of the debconf templates could be marked non translatable

Package: openssl
Version: 0.9.8g-2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

The new debconf templates contains a part with only a variable. I strongly
suggest not making this translatable as some translators often do the
mistake of translating the variable name.

Using the recent feature of "flag" in debconf templates allows this. See
attached patch.

Versions of packages openssl depends on:
