Description John Reiser 2007-10-31 19:54:13 UTC
Description of problem: sazanami-fonts-gothic is composed onto install media and
installed by default despite commenting out "## @japanese-support" in 
/usr/share/pungi/f8-fedora.ks.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sazanami-fonts-gothic-0.20040629-4.20061016.fc8


How reproducible: always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. comment out "@japanese-support" in /usr/share/pungi/f8-fedora.ks by inserting
a hash '#' at the beginning of the line.
2. compose install media using pungi; install with defaults
3. rpm -qa | grep sazanami
  
Actual results:
sazanami-fonts-gothic-0.20040629-4.20061016.fc8


Expected results:
No sazanami-fonts because support for Japanese was excluded explicitly.

Additional info:

Comment 1 Jens Petersen 2007-11-01 00:50:40 UTC
Yes, this is intentional, we now install fonts for most languages by
default in F8 to have good language coverage.

If you really don't want Asian fonts installed from your kickstart file
you can explicitly omit them with lines like:

-sazanami-fonts-gothic
-cjkunifonts-uming
-baekmuk-ttf-fonts-gulim

etc.  Those are the large ones anyway.

Comment 6 Behdad Esfahbod 2007-11-07 01:21:14 UTC
Huh, shouldn't all font packages be named something-fonts or fonts-something? 
What are these names then:

-sazanami-fonts-gothic
-cjkunifonts-uming
-baekmuk-ttf-fonts-gulim

They are subpackage of sazanami-fonts, cjkunifonts, and baekmuk-ttf-fonts.

There are plenty of other older examples of subpackages in the distro:
bitmap-fonts-cjk
dejavu-fonts-experimental
tetex-fonts-hebrew
xorg-x11-fonts-*
