language-support-* packages depend on Firefox, Thunderbird and Open Office
Writer on Ubuntu and Kubuntu
Once a language support is installed once, it could have an option that it
checks e.g.
monthly whether new packages are installed which need language support and ask
user whether they should be installed.
It's bad idea. If I install new software I want it to be in language I
specified with
Package: language-support-fi
...
Depends: mozilla-firefox-locale-fi-fi, openoffice.org-l10n-fi,
thunderbird-locale-fi, tmispell-voikko,
libenchant-voikko, openoffice.org-voikko, openoffice.org-hyphenation

CONFIRMED! Wow, this can't be all that great. If anything I think the
the firefox language packs should SUGGEST firefox and not depend on
it.
Package: language-support-fi

I just emailed the kubuntu-devel list asking if it is possible to switch
the depends on the firefox and thunderbird locales to suggest for
thunderbird and firefox. This would prevent both from being installed.

I can confirm that problem, although I tried to install
language_support_zh.
And I can also confirm that it's very annoying, especially when you are
on a dead slow internet connection in china, and that downloading all
the firefox and thunderbird packages take several hours.
