I've updated parts of the german translation, but there is also this,

"The setup command is only guaranteed to work properly on spec files where\n"
"applying all the patches is the last thing done in the %%prep section. This\n"
"is a design limitation due to the fact that quilt can only operate on\n"
"patches. If other commands in the %%prep section modify the patched files,\n"
"this must happen first, otherwise you won't be able to push the patch\n"
"series.\n"

which is a pretty unclear and therefore not very helpful statement in
the first place, and translating it won't fix the original. So I'm not
touching that.
