[opensuse-xfce] Latest change to xfce4-settings-branding-openSUSE now requires noto-sans-cjk-fonts - why?
Hi there, I recently updated my systems with the latest packages from the X11:xfce repo in OBS. This pulled in a lot new packages, all of which were related with the Noto fonts. It appears that the xfce4-settings-branding-openSUSE package now Requires: noto-sans-cjk-fonts To be honest, I don't actually need any of the CJK fonts at all; if so, I'd install them. Since they are required and not recommended, it's not actually possible to only install them when needed and (b)lock them otherwise. Can the Requires: be changed into a Recommends: please? TIA, cheers. l8er manfred

The idea behind this change was to have proper rendering of Chinese, Japanese, Korean fonts OOTB after someone requested. I use those fonts myself and did not think it would be a big deal making them a requirement.
