That's pretty unfriendly to the description translators,
and will create a larger packages file, for just the text files.
And are you sure it is a good idea to have a virtual package for
the last two issues, when Debian stable will be stable for 2 years ?
25Mb is rather big, but considering the impact of having 60
or so new packages for translators to consume, and the size of
Packages file increasing, I would rather have one package
than multiple.
