so, the result is ... I can't tell, because of the bug #518621 - but it seems
irrelevant, due to the other comments

I'm afraid I'm not getting the connection between what is supported by the Live
and what should get _installed_ by default?

uff, the whole group takes more than 70 MB ...

while I want the Asian people to be supported, I don't want to pollute their
systems with Central European support, and I hope that it can work the other
way round too :-)

I wonder what are the reasons for the others raising the issue, for example
someone likes to measure the default installation time (that is increased by
this) or whatever, but I simply don't like wasting the resources - 70 MB seems
nothing talking about desktop, but if you're trying to get Linux onto a phone
with 256 MiB internal storage (oh, and what was the hardware of OLPC?) ...
