Welcome to the magic kde-l10n-common branch.

When applying changes to the packaging, you must only do this via the packaging

branch, otherwise the changes will be dropoped with the next upload based on

This branch is designed to be the one and only common base for KDE l10n packages

Once all packages are built and you are happy, you just need to dput them.
