I think if apt-all is not used in Ubuntu, we should disable it and just expose the translatable templates the application is using.

The reason I'm suggesting this is because I think if we keep it there it will just be one more manual step we'll have to care about, which tend to be forgotten. I'd rather have an up-to-date list of templates in Launchpad than obsolete ones.

I think that if the templates are handled differently in Debian, we could add a note to the 3 current templates in LP, or alternatively, explain the differences at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Translations/KnowledgeBase#Special%20translations and link to the document in the template descriptions.

Michael, are the templates (domains) Adi was mentioning the current ones? Should we expose these? :

apt.pot (apt)
libapt-pkg4.8.pot (libapt-inst1.1)
libapt-inst1.1.pot (libapt-pkg4.8)

At the moment in Lucid it looks like this: https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/apt

(note that the versions have been removed from the template names for display purposes in Launchpad, as there is only one translatable version)
