they are not bogus. The locales of Ooo are installed and they recommend the
The different locales being already installed is not useful for any one person who will in all probability use only one of these.
help packages. Nothing bad about it - just that's the live cd has all these languages installed is suprising to people not using them.
What is bad is this: I have to pay through my nose for downloading languages I have no use for and about 200-250 MiB's of those. Then I will have to locate these packages in the package manager assuming I have remembered them and remove them. I felt really good that there were a number of languages this time in the live-cd's. I just did not think, that I was going to be affected because of them this badly. Also the DVD's from 11.1 and earlier had various languages, did they not? I never had openoffice_help-de install automatically, never! I don't understand what a ship_stopper means (even the wiki does not explain it), but installing ~400-500 MiB of packages (including the 32bit packages in unrelated bug 547751) that an user doesn't require, from the internet and paying for it seems like an experience he/she will avoid. i put in a ship_stopper because that is what it is for me.
