https://www.omniglot.com/writing/kabyle.php and also Wikipedia has a bit more information.
It seems the Tifinagh is more historical, though there seems some attempt to reintroduce, but my impression is it is not widely used.
But installing google-noto-sans-tifinagh-fonts does allow the Tifinagh characters for the name to render in Wikipedia for example,
so it makes sense to install the font as part of the langpack.

Thanks JB for raising this.I think it would be good to have a bug against langpacks for adding the language.They could even open a PR for langpacks if they wish, though we can also handle it I think.We could also track it in https://pagure.io/i18n/issues .I did take a look at https://kab.wikipedia.org/ but that seems a different script to Noto Tifinagh Fonts?And actually looking at kab.po suggests that Noto Sans might cover most of the language already?Maybe the Kabyle team should explain which characters they see missing?Anyway can surely test this in Rawhide (bit late now for F41 per se).Cheers, JensOn Sun, Oct 13, 2024 at 4:21 PM Jean-Baptiste via i18n <i18n@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:some people with great motivation are willing to have Fedora speaking

I'm unsure if we have a formal process for language addition in Fedora,

Kabyle language requires Tifinagh fonts: google-noto-sans-tifinagh-fonts
does the job.
they read langpacks spec file [1], and understand to get a kabyle
langpack available in Fedora, it requires Anaconda to be translated.
they did translate Anaconda [2]
they did fill a ticket to request language addition, but is it the
correct group? [3]
I can see a bunch of software with translation in their language,
including libreoffice, gimp, cinnamon [4]
Thanks a lot for your support, let me know if I can help,
