I think that it is pretty clear that packagers don't really want to deal
with updating description, but the users would like to have updated
descriptions. So, what if there was a group of users in charge of
updating the package descriptions/translations where needed? Would this
work?
The problem is that currently if we want to translate the description, then
we have to modify the SPEC of the RPM, which can only be done with
packager.
Like the previous messages, we have 2 methods to choose:
1 .po files for 1 package
or
1 .po files for multiple packages
The first one would cause many .po files to maintain, while the other
cause the maintainence hard( too complicate).

I think maybe a more aggresive way is better:
Make the detailed description available only for programs, not packages.
Currently the RPMDRAKE is packages based, which is hard for newbies to find
programs they need and the amount of the description need to maintain also
scares
everyone off.
The "Programs with GUI" option is the first step, but I think we should
step further,
let people install programs, not packages. Therefore, we can ease both the
difficulty
of maintain descriptions and installation harsh.
