Yes, I assumed as much.  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,=

but didn't really help with i18n issues.
