15 * urgency=medium because the changes since 0.5.5.1 are pretty safe as
16 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and

37 * Regenerate POT file and sync .po files
38 * Only try to clear stdin if it is a tty, to avoid looping if there is
39 lots of stuff (perhaps an infinite amount) to read (Closes: #192228)
