no, as you can see from the other thread pitti started:
" Simple mass-change: Mark universe packages for langpacks, please
include in your next MP"

the .desktop files will get an additional field so langpack-o-matic will
pick up the translations at package build time and stuff them in the
touch langpacks ...

what changed in image 84 was that we completely dropped the desktop
langpacks and replaced them with touch ones (gaining 40MB in rootfs
tarball size and something in the 150MB installed size back)  ... but as
long as not all packages mentioned in the other thread have the one line
addition to the .desktop file their translations will not end up in the
touch langpacks yet.
