i18n locale packages

All,

We have an inconsistent mixed delivery of i18n files. Many locales 
are packaged with tde-i18n; some are packaged in a smaller i18n 
package, such as gwenview, k3b, and koffice; while others are 
packages as part of the parent app. That last group includes the 
following:

amarok
digikam
filelight
kbiff
kdbg
kdiff3
kile
kipi-plugins
kmplayer
knights
knutclient
konversation
krecipes
krusader
kshowmail
kshutdown
ksquirrel
kvpnc
rosegarden
showfoto
tdepowersave
tdesvn
tellico

Of this latter group, only a few locales are supported in each of 
the packages.

With the three packages that include all i18n files: gwenview, k3b, 
and koffice, a challenge is gwenview and k3b is an all or nothing 
installation. Conversely, like tde-18n, koffice-i18n can be 
compiled as separate locale packages.

tde-i18n has become a monster module, just too large to deal with. 
That module should be split into smaller locale modules. Then the 
packages listed above, as well as gwenview, k3b, and koffice, could 
be merged into each respective locale module.

Comments appreciated.

Darrell
