Hi, I saw your previous merge request to eudev (not merged though).
Nice that you are able to integrate the transitional packages into the
control file of eudev 3.2.2 :)

Looking at the diff I think you have made some copy/paste errors:
This is a transitional package to ease upgrades to the ruby-gettext
package. It can safely be removed.

Should read:
This is a transitional package to ease upgrades to the eudev package.
It can safely be removed.

I'll test it when I find the time.

BTW: What's the difference between ${source:Version} and
${binary:Version}, you prefer the former?

Thank you for your efforts.
