All,
We have an inconsistent mixed delivery of i18n files. Many locales are packaged with tde-i18n; some are packaged in a smaller i18n package, such as gwenview, k3b, and koffice; while others are packages as part of the parent app. That last group includes the following:
amarok digikam filelight kbiff kdbg kdiff3 kile kipi-plugins kmplayer knights knutclient konversation krecipes krusader kshowmail kshutdown ksquirrel kvpnc rosegarden showfoto tdepowersave tdesvn tellico
Of this latter group, only a few locales are supported in each of the packages.
With the three packages that include all i18n files: gwenview, k3b, and koffice, a challenge is gwenview and k3b is an all or nothing installation. Conversely, like tde-18n, koffice-i18n can be compiled as separate locale packages.
tde-i18n has become a monster module, just too large to deal with. That module should be split into smaller locale modules. Then the packages listed above, as well as gwenview, k3b, and koffice, could be merged into each respective locale module.
Comments appreciated.
