Description of problem: Defaultly the installation of Okular and Evince don't install poppler-data, so Okular and Evince can't show the texts of many Chinese/Japanese/Korean PDF files. Though we can solve the problem through installing poppler-data, but many users may not know the solution. If poppler-data is a dependency of Okular and Evince, it will be very convenient for users especially Chinese/Japanese/Korean users. Reproducible: Steps to Reproduce:
Could you provide for test a (small) pdf with thoses characters ?

Created attachment 91 [details] A PDF file with Chinese text
(In reply to comment #1) > Could you provide for test a (small) pdf with thoses characters ? OK, I have uploaded a PDF file with Chinese text. You can test it.
poppler-data is already suggested by lib*poppler12, it shouldn't be a requires as they're optional (and not all users have/use CJK PDFs). However the poppler-data package should be on the installation ISO, otherwise it won't be installed by default.

Maybe it's a good idea that in Chinese/Japanese/Korean locale poppler-data is defaultly installed with Okular or Evince.

Mandriva Linux Free 2010.2 does so, out-of-the-box. So I believe that Mageia will do better. :)
It's not installed with the locale, just the fact that poppler-data is on the ISO means it'll be installed by default.

package is in list for next alpha2 iso
Humm maybe could we alter meta-task's rpmsrate so that we install poppler-data for ch/ja/ko anyway...

Just committed in meta-task can you check ?
Looks good. You can run check-rpmsrate in order to validate.
Checked and updated in new release of meta-task
Good. Thanks!
Available in last alpha2 release
