Description Claire Revillet 2011-12-05 09:51:10 CET
Description of problem:
I installed libreoffice-langpack-fr thinking it would install every-thing and I finished with a non working software (no writer, calc... installed, so nothing can be done with libreoffice :\ )
I have the habit of installing language package to be sure to have it and usualy it brings the whole software. 


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libreoffice-langpack-fr-3.4.3.2-2.mga2

Steps to Reproduce:
1. sudo urpmi libreoffice-langpack-fr-3.4.3.2-2.mga2
2. rpm -qa | grep libreoffice
libreoffice-core-3.4.3.2-2.mga2
libreoffice-opensymbol-fonts-3.4.3.2-2.mga2
libreoffice-java-common-3.4.3.2-2.mga2
libreoffice-ure-3.4.3.2-2.mga2
libreoffice-langpack-fr-3.4.3.2-2.mga2


I corrected that by:
1. sudo urpmi libreoffice
2. rpm -qa | grep libreoffice
libreoffice-pdfimport-3.4.3.2-2.mga2
libreoffice-core-3.4.3.2-2.mga2
libreoffice-calc-3.4.3.2-2.mga2
libreoffice-presenter-screen-3.4.3.2-2.mga2
libreoffice-opensymbol-fonts-3.4.3.2-2.mga2
libreoffice-writer-3.4.3.2-2.mga2
libreoffice-graphicfilter-3.4.3.2-2.mga2
libreoffice-java-common-3.4.3.2-2.mga2
libreoffice-impress-3.4.3.2-2.mga2
libreoffice-math-3.4.3.2-2.mga2
libreoffice-draw-3.4.3.2-2.mga2
libreoffice-ure-3.4.3.2-2.mga2
libreoffice-3.4.3.2-2.mga2
libreoffice-base-3.4.3.2-2.mga2

Comment 2 D Morgan 2011-12-07 08:44:06 CET
why should the langpack requires "all" apps ? 

this would make the installation of only math or writer impossible or only untranslated.

maybe then we should chance Requires into suggests in libreoffice main package.

Pinging, because nothing has happened with this report for more than 3 months, it still has the status NEW or REOPENED.

@ Claire

Do you agree? (I'm not sure I understand what D Morgan proposes, but since you're a packager, you might understand better :) )

Comment 4 Claire Revillet 2012-03-15 22:31:44 CET
Maybe we could add suggests to the langpack packages so that it does not come alone ?
Comment 5 Marja Van Waes 2012-05-26 13:10:24 CEST
Hi,

This bug was filed against cauldron, but we do not have cauldron at the moment.

Please report whether this bug is still valid for Mageia 2.

Thanks :)

Cheers,

Comment 8 Thierry Vignaud 2013-01-20 11:12:24 CET
Some langpacks requires the applications:
firefox (eg: firefox-fr requires firefox), thunderbird, squirrelmail, freeswitch, calligra (only core is required), celtx

Others do not: xmltv-grabbers-XX, abiword-docs-XX

in LO case, as Dexter pointed out, this would make impossible to install LO translated without installing everything.
We could do the same as calligra, make libreoffice-XX requires libreoffice-core...

Closing, using "urpmi libreoffice-<whatiswanted> libreoffice-langpack-XY" is enough
