--- Comment #31 from Emir Sarı (away) <bitig...@openmailbox.org> ---
This bug should be regarded as a "high" importance bug, since it greatly
distrupts user experience and creates a "this is sh*t" or "this does not work"
(which I belive worse than "this is sh*t") impression on end users.

When the need to install a second file just to specify the UI language is
already a big UX no-no, it is not likely that end-users will try to find (and
even if they do, still not get frustrated)a solution for this problem.

Although I cannot comment on a mean to provide a quick fix development-wise, I
think LO must switch to an installer-based installation method on OS X, if
cannot afford to host all language files within the main .app file.

A desirable method to install LO would be as follows:

1. Run the LO installer
2. Select the UI languages to install
3. During the progress bar section, download the language pack over the web
4. Complete installation

Although OS X has a fame for drag-n-drop installing of new software,
significant number of Mac software uses installers. Adobe products, Microsoft
Office, NeoOffice - just to name a few.

I cannot think of a more serious bug than this at the moment.
