Binary package hint: gtranslator

The version currently shipped in Ubuntu 10.04 is outdated and presents a serious issue that prevents using gtranslator. Basically gtranslator 1.9.6 crashes when saving due to wrong internal behavior with PO file headers. The bug was fixed in version 1.9.7 (see bug #454940).

In addition, please note that gtranslator 1.9.x is a development version, providing features and bug fixes release after release, so should be sane provide the latest version available.

A list of changes applied recently are (note that 1.9.6 was relased on August 2009):
1.9.7: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-announce-list/2010-January/msg00096.html
1.9.8: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-announce-list/2010-February/msg00034.html
1.9.9: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-announce-list/2010-February/msg00061.html
1.9.10: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-announce-list/2010-April/msg00026.html
1.9.11: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-announce-list/2010-May/msg00022.html

Debian is currently providing version 1.9.9 in testing and 1.9.11 in unstable, so the update effort should be minimal.
