It looks as if if you have m17n-db, you do not need m17n-contrib. How did you (Aiswarya) arrive at wanting to install both?
This seems to need packaging correction. Assigning globally as these pkgs have no specific maintainer, and David G is already involved & CC'd (thanks).Assignee:

pkg-bugs Sorry I was confused by the Swanalekha Malayalam keyboard installation tutorial (https://swanalekha.smc.org.in/). Then I found out that first I need to set up ibus(https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Input_methods#ibus) before I can use it. Thank you. should be fixed with m17n-db-1.8.0-2.1.mga7 in Core/Updates_testing repo! Please test. Tested. Indeed it is better. You can close the bug as fixed. Thank you. Assigning to QA, Advisory: ======================== There's a conflicting files issue if you want/try to install m17n-contrib on mga7. It conflict between m17n-contrib and m17n-db as all m17n-contrib files were merged into m17n-db package. So this update fixes this issue obsoleting old m17n-contrib package. ======================== Packages in 7/core/updates_testing: ======================== m17n-db-1.8.0-2.1.mga7.noarch.rpm m17n-db-devel-1.8.0-2.1.mga7.noarch.rpm Source RPM: ======================== m17n-db-1.8.0-2.1.mga7.src.rpm Assignee:

Note that m17n-lib had already been installed. $ m17n-db /usr/share/m17n That directory contains a large number of files concerned with fonts. Quote from https://www.nongnu.org/m17n/ The m17n library represents multilingual text as an object named M-text. M-text is a string with attributes called text properties, and designed to substitute for string in C. Text properties carry any information required to input, display and edit the text. Looks like testing it needs an expert. It looks complete so passing this as OK for 64-bits. Whiteboard:
