I sent the groff-1.21 update together with SUSEConfig.groff removal as requested by FATE#311297 [1]. That means the value /etc/papersize will no longer be rewritten on change of RC_LC_PAPER in /etc/sysconfig/language. This makes UPDATE_GROFF_CONF and GROFF_PAGESIZE variables in /etc/sysconfig/suseconfig pointless, which is not a problem as they are now obsoleted, so removal is just a next step.
Users wants to have a letter as default papersize for groff would just type
echo "letter" > /etc/papersize
What about not installing that file at all anymore and make groff decide paper size based on locale ($LC_PAPER) instead?
I like your idea - so it's now FATE#312586 - I hope I will finish it until 12.1 will be released. [1] https://features.opensuse.org/312586 Regards Michal Vyskocil
