http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=551003 Summary: Unnecessary localisation files for myspell and openoffice-thesaurus as recommended packages Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: RC 1 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.2 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Live Medium AssignedTo: coolo@novell.com ReportedBy: badshah400@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Created an attachment (id=324693) --> (http://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=324693) Output from first run of zypper inr User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.1.4) Gecko/20091016 SUSE/3.5.4-1.1.2 Firefox/3.5.4 Using RC2 here. Fresh installation using GNOME/KDE Live-CD x86-64 with Language and Keyboard both set to English(US). First run of yast software manager module pre-selects about 400-500 MiB for installation. A significant chunk of this is localisation files for openoffice-thesaurus and myspell. For example zypper inr attempts to install the following "...myspell-french myspell-german myspell-italian myspell-polish myspell-russian myspell-spanish nspluginwrapper nss_ldap-32bit nss-mdns-32bit OpenOffice_org-base OpenOffice_org-base-extensions OpenOffice_org-calc-extensions OpenOffice_org-converter OpenOffice_org-draw-extensions OpenOffice_org-filters-optional OpenOffice_org-help-de OpenOffice_org-help-es OpenOffice_org-help-fr OpenOffice_org-help-it OpenOffice_org-help-pl OpenOffice_org-help-ru OpenOffice_org-hyphen OpenOffice_org-impress-extensions OpenOffice_org-mailmerge OpenOffice_org-math OpenOffice_org-pyuno OpenOffice_org-templates-en OpenOffice_org-templates-presentation-layouts OpenOffice_org-thesaurus-de OpenOffice_org-thesaurus-en OpenOffice_org-thesaurus-es OpenOffice_org-thesaurus-fr OpenOffice_org-thesaurus-pl OpenOffice_org-writer-extensions..." These various languages form the significant chunk of the 488 MiB it tries to download while I am sure the en files are the only ones I am goin to need. This is stopper in my opinion. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Run zypper inr, or start yast software management module 2.Note packages pre-selected for installation in yast, or the files that zypper inr want sot install. 3. Actual Results: There is an attempt to force openoffice-thesurus and myspell in various languages on the user despite his/her chosen locale. Expected Results: No need to download bogus localisation files. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
