[Bug 855085] Re: Add libapt* to the striptranslations blacklist

[Martin Pitt]

Why do we need to do this? Blacklisting would mean that apt packages
will ship all *.po files right in the .deb, as opposed to "through
langpacks". This will stop us being able to deliver updated
translations, and we'd install unnecessary translations, too.

Title:
  Add libapt* to the striptranslations blacklist

Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  Triaged
Status in “pkgbinarymangler” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  As a follow up to bug #446277, I'd like to request the addition of the libapt-pkg4.11 and libapt-inst1.3 packages to the pkstriptranslations blacklist, as these packages started to ship apt templates recently.
  As the version numbers in these packages tend to change, only the names  should be added to make it future proof.
