I also want to make a separate package of latest=20 version of kttsd for users with older versions of KDE (3.2 and above). A couple of people have responded on Kalyxo-devel mailing list: 1. Apparently I must put .mo files into my .install file. The thing that=20 confuses me is I don''t see such files in any of the .install files in=20 existing debian directories in kde CVS. Are these directories even used=20 anymore? 2. Packaging of handbooks separately is my option. 3. Someone suggested using CDBS. I did, and it seems to work well for me,=20 but didn''t really help with i18n issues. =2D-=20 Gary Cramblitt (aka PhantomsDad) KDE Text-to-Speech Maintainer http://accessibility.kde.org/developer/kttsd/index.php

Take a look at the=20 manual page of dh_install.> Do I need to list all the .mo files in my .install file? > > Should I make separate .deb files for each translated handbook?No. But if there is a lot of platform independent data (e.g., files=20 in /usr/share), you can consider splitting the package in foo and foo-data=20 (or foo-common). This way, foo can be ''architecture: any'', and foo-data=20 ''architecture: all'', and a bit of space can be saved.
