The problem is that translations are included in packages only when
they're built and uploaded by someone and we don't do this "only" for
translation updates.

As D-I daily images are built with udeb packages that have been
uploaded in the archive, very few Kazakh translations currently
appear....and as we forgot to update localechooser with Kazakh added,
you will anyway not have it available.

That last item is my fault: I forgot changing localechooser when I
activated Kazakh. I will try to correct this this week-end.

Once this is done, one needs to build from the packages in SVN.

You can look at scripts/buildscript.

It will build all udebs from D-I SVN. Then you need to build a
"monolithic" image which is, from Frans Pop words, the only thing that
"buildscript" does not do very well.

If I manage to get enough time, I'll try to have a look at all this as
it would be good to provide such thing to translators (for instance, I
could document this method in the D-I i18n doc....).
