As discussed on irc:

14:25 < wolfiR> vuntz: it's not called -lang because it's not covered by
bundle-lang packages
14:25 < vuntz> wolfiR: yeah, coolo told me the issue is that the files are in
/usr/lib. Do you know if there's a reason for this?
14:25 < wolfiR> vuntz: why it's not covered by bundle-lang packages I don't
know. Basically because I don't know much about it and it probably isn't useful
in that case
14:26 < vuntz> wolfiR: if would certainly useful to gain some space on the
livecd :-)
14:26 -!- ph33r [n=ph33r@unaffiliated/ph33r] has quit [Read error: 113 (No
route to host)]
14:26 < wolfiR> the reason is that these files have to be in
$INSTALL_DIR/chrome
14:26 < wolfiR> there is no way to move them somewhere else
14:26 < vuntz> ah
14:26 < vuntz> so I guess I can just cry
14:27 < wolfiR> just don't provide the -translations packages on the live CD?
14:27 < wolfiR> or what do you want? One package for every locale?
14:27 < vuntz> well, the livecd ships with something like 6-10 locales
14:28 < vuntz> so ideally, I'd love to have the translations for those ones,
and not for the other ones
14:28 < coolo> wolfiR: are the files noarch or arch?
14:28 < coolo> if they are noarch, you could have them in /usr/share and create
symslinks in /usr/lib
14:28 < wolfiR> they _should_ be noarch but there is no guarantee for that
14:28 < coolo> and then you can put /usr/share into a -lang that is split (hmm,
you would need to create the /usr/lib symlinks in trigger scripts - ugly)
14:28 < coolo> vuntz: cry!
14:29 < vuntz> heh
14:29 < wolfiR> there is certainly a way to package each locale separately
14:29 < wolfiR> but the spec file will get looooooooong
14:30 < wolfiR> it's probably also possible to have one sourcepackage per
locale
14:31 -!- sde [n=sde@xxxxxxxxxxxx] has quit [Read error: 110 (Connection timed
out)]
14:32 < wolfiR> it's basically only packaging dtd and *.properties files but
would add some 50 packages which need to be touched with every update
14:32 < wolfiR> with almost every patch level update as well
14:33  * wolfiR is going to look how fedora does it but not right now
14:35 < coolo> wolfiR: I think vuntz would already be happy if you split the
important languages from the rest :)
14:35 < coolo> and when I say important, it may be enough if you take all
languages that have a bundle :)
14:35 < wolfiR> coolo, vuntz, feel free to provide me a list in a bugzilla
report
14:36 < wolfiR> that should be doable short term
14:38 < vuntz> will do

Here's the list of languages that have a bundle (you can get this list from the
beginning of pre_checkin.sh in bundle-lang-common):
