As I'm one of the "pros", i'd like to add that, on an entire system,
translations packages could (sometimes) represent 1/3 of total space
used !
On light systems, when I delete all unneeded translation file, I
sometimes free more dans 1GB disk space.

But this is data for the whole system. I don't know how much fedora
tools' translation files represent. Maybe it's almost nothing. I don't
know.
