I didn't know about specspo, thanks. When I install specspo I just get
these:

[hughsie hughsie-laptop ~]$ rpm -ql specspo
/etc/rpm/macros.specspo
/usr/share/locale/<locale>/LC_MESSAGES/redhat-dist.mo

How can I actually get the package summary in the french locale for the
"gimp" package for example? Do I have to use gettext for each language
and pass it in the C locale summary or is there a better way?

Thanks,

Richard.
