The current policy when using lang package is to do:
Requires: %{name}-lang = %{version}
I don't think "Requires" is true. "Recommends" is much more appropriate I think, since the package works fine without the corresponding lang package. (There might be a few packages where this isn't true, but those are exceptions).
Opinions?
Define "works fine". An english only program does not work fine.
This is debatable, really. I'd just point out that with Recommends, the translations will be installed by default but people can remove them if they need more space.
I agree with Vincent. For a package I recently ceated I came to the conclusion that Requires doesn't make sense and used Recommends for the -lang package instead without actually checking the policy. cu Ludwig -- (o_ Ludwig Nussel //\ V_/_ http://www.suse.de/ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
