Package: tasksel Version: 2.57 Severity: wishlist Hello tasksel developers,
I would like to have the simplified Chinese (chinese-s) and simplified Chinese desktop (chinese-s-desktop) tasks updated for etch release. After the discussion among Chinese users on debian-chinese-gb list (the discussion thread can be seen starting at [1], in Chinese), I'd like to ask you to update the two tasks as the attached files. 1. http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-chinese-gb%40lists.debian.org/msg13644.html I am also going to give the comments for the diff below for the rationale of the changes (excluding reordering changes and added comments): > --- tasks.orig/chinese-s 2006-10-06 14:39:30.000000000 -0500 > +++ tasks/chinese-s 2006-10-17 02:08:36.000000000 -0500 > - ttfprint ttfprint no longer exists in testing or unstable. > --- tasks.orig/chinese-s-desktop 2006-10-06 14:39:30.000000000 -0500 > +++ tasks/chinese-s-desktop 2006-10-17 02:08:03.000000000 -0500 > - scim-chinese > + scim-pinyin scim-chinese was renamed to scim-pinyin. scim-chinese in etch is just a dummy package for transition. > + im-switch This is for automatic input method support. Two of the three included input methods, scim and fcitx, supports im-switch. > + xfonts-wqy This is a new bitmap font especially designed for Chinese, and has many users. > - bg5ps bg5ps no longer exists in testing or unstable. > + paps This is a printing support package based on pango, and is reported to support Chinese quite well. Thanks in advance, Ming 2006.10.17
