Coolo, Thorsten,
we can split up a gconv package and also process the locale packages as part of the build-lang packages so that only lang packages for a certain region will get installed.
But currently this works only for a few major languages, so I'm not sure whether we really should do it.
What do you suggest?
Such requests are coming up very regular. Everytime we analyzed it, we rejected the idea of a split: you will waste more space than currently, because people always ignore hardlinks when they count diskspace. So my suggestion is the same as the last times: I wouldn't change anything. The only problem seems to be if people work with filesystems which don't know hardlinks, but that's a special other problem. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
