Rolf, Ubuntu binaries are not ready for an embedded use case where the space saving issue would really make a difference. However we do care to have support for Thai out of the box -- especially if it's so cheap in terms of space to get.
I think a bettter argument against the libthai dep is the recent security issue; I argued the case in the Debian bug report. I still believe it's wishlist and this is the tree hiding the forest; you wouldn't had noticed if the code was maintained in pango itself (as it is for other languages), and I believe using a separate library is actually a good thing (as the security update shows -- we didn't have to roll an update of pango and other embedded code copies, updating libthai was enough). I suppose a lot of people noticed this dep because of the security update. -- package libpango1.0-0 should at most recommend libthai0, but not depend on it https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/510354 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to pango1.0 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
