I would prefer a more active fix such as 1) reasonably designed markup, the PO format is quite clunky. 2) a database schema, using dgettext as a key->value retrieval mechanism has always been arcane and is sadly deficient in 2009. 3) A web infrastucture for distributing RPM pkg summary/description/ group (and for extra credit) any other scalar string identifiers associated with a package. From rpm's client POV, all that is needed is a URL to attempt remote -> local cache for use by all applications that use rpmlib. Use UUID's for additional extra credit.
But be lazy schmuck if you want. ;-)
