If I remember correctly (I'm more with the Qt side of things) most of the translations are part of the applications themselves since Plasma/KF 5. libkf5i18n-data should clearly stay. --- Lisandro Damián Nicanor Pérez Meyer http://perezmeyer.com.ar/ http://perezmeyer.blogspot.com/
Bug#945846: task-kde-desktop: Use print-manager instead of system-config-printer for KDE installation task

Bug#739270: task-british-kde-desktop: Include Print-manager package in KDE desktop on install

I can't really assert this part but... print-manager needs cups up and running (just depending on cups is not enough I think) so I don't know if it should be installed by kde-task. This part is true. Having cups installed it's not enough, it also needs cups running. That's why cups is not listed as a dependency but as a recommendation. So I would say this is not a good idea (except anything changed since the last time I took a look at it more than a year ago...) -- Paris, Je suis impregnée de ta présence!!! vous cette une fleche alée qui traspase mon cour muxbalsoc.

Certainly. Basically, I think the print-manager package which puts the printing icon in the system tray for management of that, should be installed by default with the kde task - or should certainly be installed when a print-server is included in that. KDE maintainers, any advice about this? I actually happen to have a KDE-based system and no print-manager installer so I can't really tell whether it should be installed by default. Also, it doesn't seem that this is a KDE-specific package, For what I understand of the files installed, this seems to be a KDE-specific application.

Me too :-) I did not claim that there was great sense behind that usage pattern, but I do claim that it is reality in some parts of the World. Indeed, I have seen that pattern before, although I think it was because people are used to get CDs, not DVDs (ie, just a matter of habit). Let's keep providing CDs as install medium, because it is still relevant for some (and, I vaguely feel, not only exotically few) real use cases to install non-bloated desktop at places with flaky/expensive Internet. Yes. And having installation media that needs two or more CDs for Standard desktop foo seems not a bad idea. Also, we can suggest people to try and get the DVD instead of the two mediums ;-) Regards, Lisandro. -- La política es una actividad noble.
