There are quite a few more packages (under the kde herd) that provide |
| 2 |
the linguistic functionality. The only difference with those and |
| 3 |
kde-i18n is that english is enforced and cannot be stripped off from |
| 4 |
those packages. |

|

The kde-i18n death message was added because kde-meta had to pull it |
| 7 |
as well. Then we noticed that it was bringing problems with the |
| 8 |
english locale, no locales or unsupported locales. There were various |
| 9 |
proposed solutions, as you can see in bug #137297. We opted to remove |
| 10 |
the death message and show a notice in the cases where there was no |
| 11 |
LINGUAS defined or the provided locale set was unsupported. IMHO, |
| 12 |
forcing LINGUAS into make.conf isn't a clean solution. |
