Un-asked-for-language support

Here is at least a partial list of language material that got installed
unnecessarily and unwantedly when I installed F12 on a plain laptop.

bunch of packages names starting with m17n
bunch of packages names starting with kacst
packages names starting with un-core
package names containing hangul, Canna, pinyin
cjkuni-uming-fonts
jomolhari-fonts
khmeros-base-fonts  khmeros-fonts-common
abyssinica-fonts
paktype-tehreer-fonts   sinc-meera-fonts

Almost none of these have any dependencies requiring
their presence.  Would someone please investigate why all
these get installed by default with recent distributions?
