pacman-5.0.1

There is a typo (Packet) in the german translation. See attached patch.



Also I think the german translation of 'breaks dependency' is irritating. For example: pacman -R gtk2

:: chromium: removing gtk2 breaks dependency 'gtk2'

:: chromium: das Entfernen von gtk2 löscht ein benötigtes Packet von 'gtk2'


The translation reads like: removing gtk2 removes a dependency of 'gtk2'


I'm not sure how to translate 'breaks dependency' best.
Maybe 'verletzt die Abhängigkeit' or 'löscht das benötigte Paket' ?

So it would be:
:: chromium: das Entfernen von gtk2 verletzt die Abhängigkeit 'gtk2'
:: chromium: das Entfernen von gtk2 löscht das benötigte Paket 'gtk2'

For those who don't sprechen Sie Deutsch, the suggestions round trip (according to google) to:

- The removal of gtk2 violates the dependency 'gtk2'
- Removing gtk2 deletes the required package 'gtk2'

I think the first is closer to the spirit of the error message. The second instance of "gtk2" might not be a package, but a depstring such as "gtk2>=2.16.0", so I think it's better to call it a dependency than a package.

Regarding the patch: we do all of our translation work on transifex.com.

I have no transifex account, would be nice If someone could inform the german translation team about this.
