Hi,

The general guidelines currently state that translations should be
found using %find_lang; this macro provides a listing of all *.mo
files but not their containing directories.

Specifying just the files makes sense when they are in the global
location (/usr/share/locale), but not so much when they are in, e.g.,
the Python site-packages directories. For example, python3-humanize
currently lists:

/usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/humanize
...
/usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/humanize/locale/fr_FR/LC_MESSAGES/humanize.mo
/usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/humanize/locale/ko_KR/LC_MESSAGES/humanize.mo
/usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/humanize/locale/ru_RU/LC_MESSAGES/humanize.mo

but *not* the humanize/locale or humanize/locale/* directories. So
when you uninstall python3-humanize, you are left with the
/usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/humanize/locale/*/LC_MESSAGES/
directories.

I see three ways forward:
1. Teach %find_lang to add directories if it's not in /usr/share/locale
2. Tell packagers to explicitly include the directories is not in
/usr/share/locale
3. Stop recommending %find_lang if it serves no other purpose than to
just list files (I *think* multiple packages owning directories is no
longer an issue?)


4. use %find_lang and also own the entire dir in site-packages.
