"I think that a recorded session with the output of the commands in
English is better then a localized session for debugging purposes."

I have trouble following your reasoning there.  Do you mean that you
expect they'll hand over the logs to *someone else* to debug, instead
of reading it themselves?  I mean, that may be true, but you certainly
didn't state it.  That leaves me needing to guess.

If my guess is correct, then I don't support the plan to modify the
Debian documentation to suggest that everyone log their dist-upgrades
in English "because if something goes wrong you will probably ask for
help from an English speaker".  There are way too many layers of
assumptions there.

No.  No, they do not.  They may *think* they do.  They do not.
