First, the mozilla-firefox-locale-* will disappear soon, since they are for Firefox 2, and with Firefox 3 we'll get the translations directly in the language packs.
Also, all dependencies are actually designed in a way to *not* pull in the application itself: Package: openoffice.org-l10n-fi Depends: openoffice.org-common (>= 1:2.4.0~rc2) | language-support-fi Package: thunderbird-locale-de Depends: thunderbird | language-support-de and so on, thus the oo-l10n-* packages can be installed *without* openoffice itself being installed. The alternative dependency will make sure that installing l-support-* won't install the application, but installing thunderbird-locale-fr will properly pull in thunderbird itself if you don't have the French language-support package installed. -- language-support-* packages depend on Firefox, Thunderbird and Open Office Writer on Ubuntu and Kubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/114503 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is subscribed to kubuntu-meta in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
