Public bug reported:
Here is a discussion that happened on the ubuntu-desktop mailing list on

"The evolution-common package in ubuntu weights 93.4 MiB. After
openoffice.org-core, this is the heaviest package installed in ubuntu by
default. I personally like evolution, and I'd like it to be kept part of
the default installation, I was just wondering: what on earth can be so
heavy in evolution-common? They certainly don't have over 8 million
lines of codes like openoffice, no?"
======
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dpkg -L evolution-common | grep '\.png' | wc -l
1370
That's mostly the images for the documentation. It ships the images for a lot of
locales, as some of them are localized.
======
And why aren't those in an evolution-doc package? Why not split this into
evolution-doc-$locale packages, and have them only installed by the good old
language-support-$locale?

evolution's documentation should be split in locale packages to save space
