I definately see the repackaging as a far lesser problem (the concrete problem with that is quite minimal) than creating many source packages, which all need to be stored separately on the mirrors, and would also get treated separately by all Debian tools. As for the binary package, that depends on the installed size. For both phpBB and SquirrelMail we did not split the translation up, because each translation is quite small sized. How much space would it cost to install all translations? Thijs
