Stop apt-get from trying to download translations from specific repositories

I have a custom Debian repository deployed with no translation packages which I created using reprepro utility. Everytime apt-get update is run I see requests to *i18n* packages which I don't have and hence *404* is returned back to clients. This hasn't been a problem so far, but it seems like a misconfiguration issue that should be addressed. I managed to stop apt-get from downloading all translations by putting these lines (thanks to a tip similar to [this](https://askubuntu.com/questions/184665/how-apt-get-determines-when-to-download-translation-file) one) Acquire::Languages { "none"; } to /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/99languages I want to this to work only for my repo. I've stumbled upon similar problems with setting up repository-specific proxies. These problems have been solved with adding a repository URI before "none" but this doesn't seem to do the job for Languages options. I'll be very thankful to anyone who might recommend a proper solution. I'm using a Debian Jessie-based distribution.
