During their work translators notice different possible issues in the original (english) man pages. Sometiems this is a straightforward typo, sometimes a hard to read sentence, sometimes this is a convention not held up and sometimes we simply do not understand the original. We use several distributions as sources and update regularly (at least every 2 month). This means we are fairly recent (some distributions like archlinux also update frequently) but might miss the latest upstream version once a while, so the error might be already fixed. We apologize and ask you to close the issue immediately if this should be the case, but given the huge volume of projects and the very limited number of volunteers we are not able to double check each and every issue. Secondly we translators see the manpages in the neutral po format, i.e. converted and harmonized, but not the original source (be it man, groff, xml or other). So we cannot provide a true patch (where possible), but only an approximation which you need to convert into your source format. Finally the issues I'm reporting have accumulated over time and are not always discovered by me, so sometimes my description of the problem my be a bit limited - do not hesitate to ask so we can clarify them. I'm now reporting the errors for your project. If future reports should use another channel, please let me know. ** Man page: login.1 Issue: Missing markup for lastlog "Highest user ID number for which the lastlog entries should be updated. As " "higher user IDs are usually tracked by remote user identity and " "authentication services there is no need to create a huge sparse lastlog " "file for them. No LASTLOG_UID_MAX option present in the configuration means " "that there is no user ID limit for writing lastlog entries."
