Hi everyone. For this moment none of Live ISO editions/spins install langpacks except for `langpack-en`, as opposed to Fedora Everything and Fedora Server ISO. Langpacks contains localization for some software (e.g. LibreOffice, man pages) and grammar check rules. If I recall correctly, there is no way to install langpacks from GUI, so to fix this user need to surf the internet to find console command and figure out how and where to execute it. I want to file change proposal to fix this issue. I have multiple solutions to this issue, all of them has their own pros and cons, but I don't know which will be best for Fedora, or maybe someone has better idea, so feedback would be great! So, here is the list: 1. Add `langpack-*` (and packages that supplements them) into installation image. This solution is the best in my opinion, because it will work with and without internet connection and provide language support for every language out of the box. However, this method will add approximately 400 MiB to size of image (my calculations are 355 and 351 MiB, Fedora KDE 41). I'm not sure if installer should install all of them on disk, language support will be provided for more languages user may use if all langpacks are installed into target system. 2. Make an application to automatically install langpacks after installation. This method requires some effort: implementing an application, implementing localization for it, convincing all editions/spins to include it. It also won't work in offline/airgapped environments. 3. Make installer hybrid. One way is to combine Live ISO's local packages and remote repositories to make hybrid installer. This will also help with installation of the most fresh system but this also won't work without internet connection.
