Óvári <ovar...@gmail.com> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|UNCONFIRMED |NEW Ever confirmed|0 |1 --- Comment #7 from Óvári <ovar...@gmail.com> --- (In reply to Yousuf (Jay) Philips from comment #6) > the windows daily installer on @62 only includes a similar set of > languages (en-US, de, ar, ja, ru, qtz). Not sure if “en-US, de, ar, ja, ru, qtz” are a similar set of languages; however for testing purposes they may give a broad cross-section of use cases. If effort is going to be expended to create separate downloads, perhaps the best solution for minimal downloads would be to have: * a core LibreOffice download (without any language pack); and * each language as a *separate* download, not grouped at all. There could be a page on LibreOffice.org to download language packs. It could look like: http://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/?type=win-x86_64&lang=pick with the title changed from “Please select your language” to “Language packs for Windows 64 bit”. Having each language *separate* may make adding extra languages easier as: * extra languages would not need to find which build of LO it should be added to; * if there are similar languages that could be bundled together, but there is a political situation between the languages, this would be avoided; * installation files would be the absolute minimum, satisfying bug 97991. Perhaps it would also reduce the amount of data through a government/enterprise installation (this could be a lot for installations in the magnitude of 10^4 or more). The Mac build has challenges as the Release Notes state, “Mac OS X: Please start LibreOffice at least once before installing a LangaugePack.” (https://www.libreoffice.org/download/release-notes/). Perhaps this blocks this bug. I thought that the current install is optimal, hence suggested WorksForMe; however, a core LO installation (without any languages) and separate language packs for each language would be the best solution for: reducing the download size, data travelling through a network when installations in the magnitude of 10^4. Setting to status to UNCONFIRMED → NEW. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
