Created attachment 1100369 [details] ks files diff from F21 to F23 releases for Fedora Live workstation Description of problem: I compared F21 and F23 Workstation Live kickstart files and concluded that there is not much change and for langpacks plugin its same. In F21 we used yum-langpacks and then F22+ its replaced by dnf-langpacks in comps at same place in same standard group. Problem is why dnf-langpacks is not getting added in Fedora Workstation Live media image? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): spin-kickstarts-0.23.6-1.fc23 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. take existing fedora-live-workstation.ks file 2. sudo livecd-creator -d --verbose --config=/usr/share/spin-kickstarts/fedora-live-workstation.ks --fslabel=Fedora-LiveCD-lang --cache=/var/cache/live 3. Actual results: no dnf-langpacks package in Live image Expected results: dnf-langpacks should be available like we had yum-langpacks till F21 releases. Additional info: Attached are related kickstart files diff to generate Fedora Workstation Live media from F21 to F23.
Ping spin-kickstart developers... I am not sure owner (kanarip) of this package is still around based on datagrepper low activity results.
I asked kalev to look into this one... not sure if he's had a chance yet.
Thanks Kevin, meanwhile I will also try to find more information about this problem.
Workstation doesn't use the standard group, which is probably the reason why it doesn't show up. I wonder if we should run this by the Workstation WG before adding it to the workstation group? I could do that at the next meeting.
When I tried to find more about this problem initially, I am confused why almost similar kickstart file worked fine in F21 and pulled yum-langpacks successfully.

At the WG meeting today, nobody was aware of any reason to not install dnf-langpacks. I think the only reason it is not currently installed by default is that nobody ever added it. So I think it's fine to add. Don't edit the kickstart though, that's not the right place to add package-level dependencies. Edit the workstation-product group in comps.
I've added it to @workstation-product: https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/comps.git/commit/?id=cff34ea16fabf3ca609087efa262c3219e5b138b
