It took some time but finally we have a working system-config-language[1] tool in Fedora rawhide. The major changes happened from 1.4.1 release to this 2.1.0 release are<br>
1) system-config-language GUI is re-written using PyGobject3 API's.<br>
2) system-config-language checks packages to install for any language using yum-langpacks instead of groups in comps file.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Earlier s-c-l was using groupinstall which used to install fonts, IMES and l10n related packages. yum-langpacks only install l10n related package.<br>
<br></div><div>If i remember correctly Bill mentioned earlier, intention behind langpack is to get rid of language related group and also mentioned <a href="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=840885#c21">https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=840885#c21</a> "<pre class="" id="comment_text_21">
The groups are likely to be removed soon - input methods merged into the input-methods group, and fonts into the font group."<br><br></pre></div><div>But question arise if layman users want to install IME and fonts packages related to his language, how he can accomplish that? With the present implementation either he need to install all fonts and IME's available in systems to get his desired language related package. This is definitely what we are looking for.<br>
</div><div><br></div><div>I strongly feel langpacks should be compatible with "groupinstall lang-support" in long term.<br><br></div><div>Regards,<br>Pravin Satpute<br></div></div></div></div></div>
