Yes, that's what I was asking for. The zope.app.locales
has dependencies to each i18n aware zope.* package because it
offers transalation for this packages. And at the same time
it offers the i18nextract.py script which could be used by
other projects. This ends in having dependencies to all 
zope.* packages. We need to split the locale extraction
concept and the concret zope.* package extraction part into
two different packages. Then we can reuse the local extraction
concept wihtout dependencies to the full zope.* package tree.
