This is probably true, though it's possible that hvr might respond to https://github.com/haskell-hvr/hgettext/pull/17 > * Do you care about any of the other packages listed below or can they be > removed from the archive?

I definitely think that the 'key' mechanism leaves a lot to be desired, but I am not sure what would work better, especially given that people seem generally uninterested in keeping the package-plan up-to-date.
