+  * dh_translations:
+    - Prevent domain confusion for Meson packages when a 'help-' domain
+      is present (LP: #1762889).
+    - Allow the domain to be passed to dh_translations via an option in
+      debian/rules.
+    - Strip also Icon and Keywords translations in .desktop files.

+However, for some packages with the Meson build system the program fails
