Description of problem: As part of F31 https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Langpacks-core Change implementation, I was thinking if glibc.spec can drop Supplements: (glibc and (]]..suppl..[[)) and langpacks.spec to have Requires: glibc-langpack-<locale> I see glibc langpack packages (198 on F30) are more whereas not every such have corresponding langpacks meta-packages (88 on F30) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): latest glibc package How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: glibc.spec is supplementing for langpacks-<locale> Expected results: langpacks.spec to requires glibc langpack packages Additional info:
Can I request glibc package maintainers to provide their feedback on this request?
I do not have an opinion on this change. Would this change here help with bug 1380069 as well? Would it make that fix more difficult.
Well, I tried to test this in my copr with new langpacks-2.0 package but looks like glibc-langpack-<langcode> is not getting removed. Will check more on this.
(In reply to Florian Weimer from comment #2) > I do not have an opinion on this change. To add a little more: further glibc doesn't actually know what meta langpacks packages exist in Fedora. So in this sense it makes more sense to carry the information in langpacks rather than glibc itself. > Would this change here help with bug 1380069 as well? Would it make that > fix more difficult. I don't think it has any affect on that, but maybe 'glibc-langpack' can be simplified anyway.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 31 development cycle. Changing version to 31.
We really need changes for langpacks-core-* at the very least for F31. https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/glibc/pull-request/15 https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/glibc/pull-request/16 I would still rather we moved this completely to langpacks since that is more consistent.

Thanks For F32 we want to move the weak dependencies into the langpacks package.
