Surely this is a stupid dependency? It's supposedly *optional* whether you use anti-spam filtering in Evolution (I've never allowed it's junk mail checking), why should it *have* to be present?
John Summerfied:
So you _can_ use the filtering.
Then, if I want to, I can load the required files onto my system.
Disk space is cheap and it is less problematic to just have it.
It's as daft as having to install 100 dictionaries for a spell checker, because it insists. Never mind that you only speak one language.
language specific files should be marked with the %lang macro in the % files of the spec file. If not, it is a bug.
You can configure rpm to only install languages you use - in which case the %lang stuff you don't want doesn't get installed.
There currently is not an option for this in Anaconda - though I believe you *can* modify the config file via CLI before Anaconda starts installing (never tried).
