[Debian-l10n-devel] Description-less packages file

Hello,

I welcome this change as it will also bring benefits in the local processing
speed (at least, for some tools).

As for Cupt, a couple of simple patches is needed for the support of
the grabbing new 'Description-md5' from Packages-files, but even
without them the program should work correctly (aside of "seeing" empty
descriptions).

If/when this will go forward, I would like to ask for the official
confirmation a couple of weeks before so there is a time to apply the
patches.

P.S. As David said already, would be nice to see all usual i18n/* files
in newdists/ for the cleaner testing.

P.P.S. Thanks for care.
