conceptually i'd think language packs should be troves like for programing languages, similar to libre-office:python there would be libre-office:french and firefox:french, and just like you can pick to install :doc or leave it out, you'd pick the language you want. there could of course be a group to bind them all together. one problem with this idea however is how to separate for example docs in different languages. in a group can packages be made optional in a way that they are only installed if their dependencies are already there? greetings, martin. -- eKita - the online platform for your entire academic life hackerspace beijing - http://qike.info -- chief engineer eKita.co pike programmer pike.lysator.liu.se caudium.net societyserver.org BLUG secretary beijinglug.org foresight developer foresightlinux.org realss.com unix sysadmin Martin Bähr working in china http://societyserver.org/mbaehr/ _______________________________________________ Foresight-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.foresightlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/foresight-devel
