My usual assumption is that people thought about this when setting up the current guess-the-langcode system. In other words, there must be a good reason. The only one I can think of is the problem of changing langcodes (like the change to X11-compatible names we did some time back). =20 > By extension, if there is a lot of stuff that translations need to carry > around, then what is wrong with ".include ${DOC_PREFIX}/share/mk/doc.jp.m= k" > or similar? Yes, this could help a lot, because it makes it possible to set the LANGCODE, maybe different binaries (especially for the generation of .txt files, this seems to be broken for DE still), etc. /s/Udo --=20 Never argue with an idiot, they drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience. --RhUH2Ysw6aD5utA4 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (FreeBSD) iQCVAwUBP/LiLUPoh1XnT6hxAQGCGQP9FEAdo213FZ2q4RnY0g3uh/GrpB0qHm0t y3ftnFjJvmYGcW8Riyxax7LqmFJz29BcD/aImG0EUtExYx7ffsKhtqSsqWHVZ6GZ hS98z6Zk94HAsMxPc3FyGQ7IRVkj9j+pYrDE1P86aFDFPfB0cmPdjeL+uSZNB4Ny SFUgsk+SzhM= =LFA0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --RhUH2Ysw6aD5utA4--
