I did a mozilla-locale-es-es package some time ago. It was for version
0.9.8.
As you maybe know locale translation files (.xpi) are versioned and
you won't get mozilla 1.0 to work with mozilla-es-es 0.9.8
So when I did my package, it was aimed at woody (that shipped with
mozilla 0.9.8) but version of mozilla in sid was already 0.9.9 so my
package was rejected.
Right now, version of mozilla in sid is 1.1 but there's no xpi
version 1.1 available yet. When xpi 1.1 will be released, version of
mozilla in sid will probably have increased already.
Because of these dependencies problems, I have been stuck for the last
months and still don't know how to syncronize the various files (also
imagine what might happen if the 2 depending files could enter
together sid but then, after 12 days, 1 passes to testing and the
other not, because of, say, a RC bug).
If you have any solution to this problem, you're welcome to hijack my
ITP and maintain the package (or give me the solution and I'll maintain
the package if you don't feel like doing it yourself).
Cheers,
