--- Comment #3 from Parag Nemade <pnemade(a)redhat.com> ---
(In reply to Caolan McNamara from comment #1)
The require as it currently stands just ensures that to install a
libreoffice-LANG you will also need a font that supports LANG without
prescribing what font that should be, so that the UI can at least be
rendered without missing glyphs. I think its impracticable and undesirable
to maintain a list of potentially ~70 fonts in libreoffice itself.
Before F30 dnf langpacks-LANG metapackages don't require any fonts, e.g.
rpm -q langpacks-th
langpacks-th-1.0-13.fc29.noarch
rpm -q --whatprovides "font(:lang=th)"
no package provides font(:lang=th)
And the only place we currently list the "best" fonts for a language are in
comps
https://pagure.io/fedora-comps/blob/master/f/comps-f29.xml.in
But I see that
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/
Replace_Comps_Language_Group_With_Langpacks targeted at F30 plans to change
how this works.
caolanm->pnemade/peterson: I presume the replacement of comps with langpacks
isn't actually done yet and there isn't a tracker bug for it ?
Yes we have not done yet any replacement in comps file. Once FESCo gives
approval for this change, I will first implement this Change in langpacks.spec
to pull fonts and ime packages. Then we will do some testing for sometime and
then will remove language support groups from comps file.
The Change bug tracker will be created once FESCo provides approval for the
proposed F30 Change.
