Hello!
Here are the french ks for localized LiveCD spins.
The current problem with adding dictionaries and man-pages is
that they are disabled in the included ks.
(-man-pages-* etc )
So I expect it would be easier to have an "international - offical" ks
that would allow us to add this kind of packages; without having theses
packages removed first.
Or the other way would be to have a +man-pages-fr to override the
removal directive.
The %__install_lang_macro seems really interesting for localization
works. It will save around 200Mo from a liveCD/USB spin. and will make
the KDE Live spin ... a "potential" LiveCD spin.
Everything is already available from Fedora. The packages just need to
use the %find_lang macro from the spec file. Only cups and
NetworkManager-openvpn (for what i've noticed) doesn't seems compatible
and will install all langs...
Cups will probably not been fixed.

The testing LiveCD french spins are here
(with additionals packages ).
