Agree 1000% with that... and it is much less of an issue right now than it was initially for this reason. At this point, I'd actually be fine if we could just get the Program Description in Add/Remove Programs to properly reflect/display the *installed* language(s), as opposed to just blindly displaying *all* *supported* languages. > But on the other hand, and I guess that's what the discussion started > with, having to do a separate download for the help, if you want it > local, is not so convenient. Correct, that is a separate issue - I would still - especially now that the installer is so much smaller - argue that it just doesn't make sense to provide the help as a secondary installer, and that it should be recombined into a single installer, but I understand the argument about making the load easier on the mirrors too... Maybe it could be scripted? Have a checkbox (I'd argue that it should be checked by default) for including the local help, when the download is selected, just have some kind of script 'concatenate' the two installers into a single downloadable executable prior to downloading? Shouldn't be too difficult for a competent programmer (I am not even an *incompetent* programmer, but I know enough about programming to know generally what would be hard and what would be easy)... -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] In case of problems unsubscribing, write to [email protected] Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
