--- Comment #8 from Christian Lohmaier <[email protected]> ---
this is a wfm (works for me) - the installer includes all UI languages and for
deployment it is possible to use advanced commandline options as described in
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Deployment_and_Migration to pick the
components you want to install – or of course you can also build a version
yourself or repackage it another way and deploy your custom package instead (or
use professional support that might not only help with custom
packaging/deployment but also other issues you might have specific to your
usecase)


The recent discussions in the project even go as far as to also package the
help files into the installer to even further simplify the installation
(starting with the download experience)

The reason that wasn't done for the other platforms (macOS) is that those
didn't use an installer that could just pick the OS installation language, but
rather there you by default get everything included in the "installer" and
there's a balance of how much diskspace the project should take up. But with
storage getting much cheaper and appstore distribution methods also using a
"you get everything" appraoch, even on those platforms the move is towards
including all UI languages in the single main distributable package.

wfm since despite all langauges/dictinaries being packaged, it still is
possible to pick individual components for automated installation methods

If some components should be optional, but cannot be unselected using the
custom installation using the UI or using corresponding flags, then that should
be filed in a separate bug and can be addressed that way.
