It's certainly doable, but will take a bit of coding to do it well. We
currently generate the Packages.gz files and equivalent as we copy
each package into the temporary CD tree during a build. The logical
thing to do then will be to do the same with the translations. I'll
have a look ASAP.

  Getting a SCSI chain working is perfectly simple if you remember that there
  must be exactly three terminations: one on one end of the cable, one on the
  far end, and the goat, terminated over the SCSI chain with a silver-handled
  knife whilst burning *black* candles. --- Anthony DeBoer
