Re: Bug#181009: ITP: koffice-i18n -- i18n files for koffice
> * Package name : koffice-i18n
Hi. The situation with koffice i18n stuff is a bit unclear; in
particular, it has been included in kde-i18n at various times in the
past, though it doesn't seem to be at the moment.
There was a short thread on debian-kde regarding koffice i18n stuff
(http://lists.debian.org/debian-kde/2002/debian-kde-200209/msg00262.html)
that might also be worth reading.
Specifically the choice needs to be made between a single koffice-i18n
package, lots of little koffice-i18n-foo packages and simply putting
koffice-i18n stuff in the little kde-i18n packages. Each of which are
bad solutions (respectively: massive package to download if you just want
a single translation, massive package splitting and different upstream
release cycles).
It might be worth discussing this a little on debian-kde to decide the
best way to handle this (I'm personally in favour of putting the koffice
i18n stuff in the little kde-i18n-foo packages that already exist, but
that means quite a bit more hassle for the kde-i18n maintainer).
Anyway, thanks for taking this up. :)
Ben.
