527 | the strings? |

527 | It's a little ambiguous. Maybe "any of these strings". Also, s/note/not/ | |
528 | "should be" is okay here, it is making a recommendation. But this sentence is vague. It's hard to tell what it is saying. The string should be different... from what? I think it is saying that the wording of the message depends on which variable is used. The example shows that BROKEN and IGNORE are worded differently. |

40 | The <filename>pkg-<replaceable>*</replaceable></filename> files can be modified by <link linkend="pkg-names">redefining a variable</link> rather than overwriting the file. | |
67 | Some code needs modifications or | |
189 | The rest of the sentence starting with "and" seems unnecessary here. Also, if we must include smileys, they should probably be ☺. | |
217 | s/resaonnable/reasonable/ | |
218 | s/,// | |
282 | Break sentence at semicolon. | |
309 | s/System/The system/ | |
345 | Do send applicable changes and patches to the upstream | |
346 | maintainer for inclusion in the next release of the code. | |
347 | This makes the next release that much easier. | |
370–371 | s/cases/cases,/ | |
371 | There are several variables that can be used in a port's <filename>Makefile</filename> to tell the user that the port cannot be installed. | |
374 | <command>make</command> is not really needed here. | |
375 | s/given back/shown/ | |
376 | Remove <command>make</command>. | |
377 | variable. Each variable conveys radically different | |
378 | meanings, both to users and to automated systems that depend on | |
379 | "the" is not needed here. | |
516 | "it will be checked" is ambiguous. If this variable is set, <filename>/usr/lib32</filename> must be present for IA32 versions of libraries and the kernel must support IA32 compatibility. | |
530 | Due to the way the information is shown to the user, the wording of messages for each variable differ:</para> | |
626 | s/Check/Verify/ | |
639 | s/Maybe also contact/Contact/ | |
647 | Break sentence after "information". | |
650 | The quotes seem unnecessary. to get the executable name. | |
652 | s/behaviour/behavior/ | |
698 | Break sentence after "way". |
