simutrans-src-100-0.zip missing some files

I'm looking into adding simutrans to the FreeBSD package system, but the simutrans-src-100-0.zip source code misses the files listed below. Could a fixed package be uploaded to sf.net? Or am I missing something and can these files be generated somehow?

simutrans/text/be.tab
simutrans/text/ca.tab
simutrans/text/cn.tab
simutrans/text/cz.tab
simutrans/text/de.tab
simutrans/text/dk.tab

simutrans/text/et.tab
simutrans/text/fi.tab
simutrans/text/fr.tab
simutrans/text/hr.tab
simutrans/text/hu.tab
simutrans/text/id.tab
simutrans/text/it.tab
simutrans/text/ja.tab

Those look like localisation files...

These are the "Simutrans Base Translation Files". They are not part of the Simutrans source code but get added into a realease version from another external source (=Simutranslator, an online database for all texts and translations).

Ok, I understand they are kept in different repositories, but when you make a release I think you should add them in the zip archive, or perhaps in a separate zip archive. Currently, to build a working FreeBSD binary I need to download both the source code and the linux package, which is a bit redundant.

YOu need to download the translations directly from simutranslator. There is even a point: Download all as zip archive.

Use wget, you will find in the svn a distribution.sh that does the trick.

I really hate to bug you with this, but where exactly is this zip? All I can find is http://www.simutrans-germany.com/translator/script/wrap.php.

for this option you need an account

Ok, but this is not really what is needed. A package building system downloads the source code, applies extra patches (if needed), builds for some architecture (x86,ppc,sparc,...), installs everything into a temporary location and then adds all those installed files together with some meta data like a description into a compressed package, which is then uploaded to distribution servers and mirrors. This is all fully automated and therefore all downloaded files are checked against known checksums (MD5,SHA256,...) to detect corrupted downloads and prevent tampering. It's because of this that I can't download from Simutranslator because the checksums would change everytime someone changes a translation.

Right now I can download simulinux-100-0.zip to get those base translation files, so I'm settled, but since it contains many files that are already in the src zip, it's redundant.

Since the translator is meant to be dynamic, there is not proper way doing it otherwise.
