Ubuntu uses language packs. The language pack process strips translations out of the .deb packages so that they can be provided by the language packs instead.
In some cases, the translations are the only things in a package and the package therefore appears to be empty. However, it is not worth diverging from Debian to remove these packages only on Ubuntu. Therefore, this is expected behavior and there is nothing that needs to be fixed here. ** Changed in: libgdata (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid ** Changed in: libgdata (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => Won't Fix -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2014587 Title: libgdata-common is required by libgdata22 but is empty.
