Description of problem: Photo batch processor has a dependency of thai-scalable-fonts-common and thai-scalable-purisa-fonts, and refuses to install without them. Since I have no need for these fonts, I request that this dependency be removed so that the ones who do not need them are not forced to install them. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.2.7-2 noarch How reproducible: attempt to install phatch, phatch-cli and nautilus phatch. Steps to Reproduce: 1. attempt to install phatch, phatch-cli and nautilus phatch. 2. yum wants to install thai-scalable-fonts-common and thai-scalable-purisa-fonts 3. Actual results: a. install unwanted fonts so that the application can be installed. or b. don't install the unwanted fonts so the application also is not installed. Expected results: Application installs without requiring unneeded thai fonts Additional info: Language fonts should be optional and based on the locale configuration, not on a package requirement.
Hi, I've added them to the requires list because they were listed as requires in the documentation. I'll remove them. Can you tel me more about the requires based on locale configuration ?
I wish I could, but I am not familiar enough with it. I just finished looking at the yum man page, and did not see where it could be done from within yum. What documentation are you referring to? Perhaps the source of that documentation can indicate why the "require" is there. I will do some more checking to see if I can find out why the "require" is there and if it is indeed needed or if it is there only because some programmer required it for his/her locale and did not remove it for the general distribution.
Okay, I just was visiting the Phatch web page: http://photobatch.wikidot.com/install#toc6 According to that, the requirements are below. It appears that the Thai-scalable fonts are optional. Linux linux.gif Requirements In case Phatch is not available for your Linux distribution, ask the package team to package it. Installing it yourself is also very easy as there is no need to compile anything, since Phatch is 100% python. Install first the required dependencies: * python (2.5 or 2.4) * python-wxgtk (2.8 or 2.6) * python-imaging (1.1.6 or 1.1.5) * findutils (find command is used to locate font files) The other dependencies are optional. If you want to be able to save EXIF & IPTC metadata. * python-pyexiv2 If you use nautilus (gnome file browser), install as well: * python-nautilus
ok, I'll remove them from requires.

I downloaded the files and installed them (yum localinstall) and did a quick test to see if it worked by converting a color .jpg photograph into a grayscale .png file. It worked okay. Thank you for making this change.
