At the moment, it just wont work (gettext limitation); nevertheless we are thinking about the possibility to offer separate translation update packages.

These people are experts. They can go directly to the CVS and download what they need. Please note, according to my experiences "Americans" can stand the translations coming with tar.gz files; only "advanced" European users (so called "experts") don't like them. > There are packages that are much more complicated to install than > that. The difference is translation are not "essential" -- thus people will tend to ignore them if additional efforts are involved. This might change in the future but for now that's the truth. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] (work) / [EMAIL PROTECTED] (home): | http://www.suse.de/~ke/ | ,__o Free Translation Project: | _-\_<, http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/contrib/po/HTML/ | (*)/'(*)
