Bug ID: 27236
Summary: Package PO translation files separately to koha-common
Change sponsored?: ---
Product: Koha
Version: master
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5 - low
Component: Packaging

I propose that we package PO translation files separately as "koha-i18n".
This is a common practice in Debian:
https://packages.debian.org/search?searchon=names&keywords=i18n
As Bernardo pointed out in Bug 24211, ~350MB of Koha's installed size is just
PO files. That's roughly 75% of Koha's installed size.
Combined with Bernardo's early ideas from Bug 24211, we could actually package
the PO files as compressed files (down from ~350MB to ~50MB).
Libraries that need translations could make sure their vendors install
koha-i18n (this is another use-case for koha-core vs koha-full), and then they
can just decompress the languages required.
Technically, this might even make it easier to provide updated translations
when the only change in Koha is the translation (and no code/template changes).
