Hi,

Is it possible to disable translation for the packages that cannot be translated using LP or will not be included into 12.10?

Packages that cannot be translated:

gutenprint
grub
cups
libktorrent (part of KDE's KTorrent and KGet)

Packages that probably will not be released:

kubuntu-docs ( http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2012/07/26/%23kubuntu-devel.html Littlegirl has no time to finish update )

Many thanks for your answers.

Best regards,
Yuri
