But I need to download binary-amd64/Packages, binary-i386/Packages, binary-armel/Packages, binary-mipsel/Packages. That is 4 times nearly identical sets of long descriptions. Now I only need to download the english "translation" once. I'm not in a position, to estimate this effect, but the change has a severe impact on the translation effort at least for Danish and I guess that the above situation has lasted for some time (downloading several long descriptions). It must be possible to undone this change, until a solution for the translation robot has been prepared. bye Joe Danish -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
