hi, a very seen problem by end users is the l10n and i18n packages :
- you install thunderbird, but it is in english, while your system was
installed in another language
- the same for kde, gcompris (sounds only), firefox, libreoffice, gimp (help
only), etc.

Has this already been discussed?
Is there any projet on rpmdrake/urpmi to give a better user experience?

I don't remember if it has been discussed here, but it was discussed a bit on mdv before mga started. I agree that something should be done about this. I've long thought that we should have a means to designate the languages for a system, so that these languages are installed if available in accompanying packages (like firefox/libreoffice/gimp, etc), and other languages are not installed where they are included in a package, as is often the case.

BTW, when I was more limited in disk space, while on mdv, I removed unwanted l10n files, and saved a considerable amount of disk space.

That's among the many improvements I'd like to see in rpmdrake/urpmi.
Now all I need to do is improve my perl skills, and a little more time ... :)
