The <code class="literal">localization</code> component type describes language packs for individual software components or groups of software components. A language pack includes anything necessary to localize a software component for a specific language and/or country. This is usually translations, but may also be translated media content, currency information and other things. A <code class="literal">localization</code> component <code class="literal">extends</code> one or multiple other components and defines the languages it provides via its <code class="literal">languages</code> tag.
</div><div class="para">
Language packs can ship one or more metainfo files as <code class="filename">/usr/share/metainfo/%{id}.metainfo.xml</code>.

Note that the XML root must have the <code class="literal">type</code> property set to <code class="code">localization</code>. This clearly identifies this metainfo document as describing a language pack.

</a><span class="term"><id/></span></dt><dd><div class="para">
For localizations, the value of the <code class="code"><id/></code> tag must follow the reverse-DNS scheme as described for generic components. Ideally, the name of the component this language pack is for should be suffixed with <code class="code">.l10n.%{lang}</code>, where <code class="code">%{lang}</code> is the language code of the language pack.
</div><div class="para">
For example, if your applications component-id is <code class="code">org.gimp.gimp</code> the ID of the German language pack for GIMP should be <code class="code">org.gimp.gimp.l10n.de</code>.
</div></dd><dt><a id="tag-l10n-extends">
</a><span class="term"><extends/></span></dt><dd><div class="para">
The <code class="literal">extends</code> tags contain all the components this language pack can be used with.

</a><span class="term"><languages/></span></dt><dd><div class="para">
This tag gives information about the locale a localization component provides support for.
</div><div class="para">
The tag is allowed to only occur once per component, and contains multiple <code class="code"><lang/></code> child nodes, which have a <a href="https://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/html_node/Language-Codes.html">language code</a> as value. Each <code class="code"><lang/></code> node may have a <code class="literal">percentage</code> property, which describes the percentage value to which a component has been translated.

Tag example:
</div><pre class="programlisting"><span xmlns="" class="line"></span><span xmlns="" class="perl_Keyword"><languages></span>
<span xmlns="" class="line"></span> <span xmlns="" class="perl_Keyword"><lang></span>de_DE<span xmlns="" class="perl_Keyword"></lang></span>
