(I'm just after short review of m17n) IMO it will be better ask why m17n was included to distribution packages list. On first look m17n it is real piece of crap. Why ? Because in current form it duplicates many things from libc locale database and few more things (did I write "duplicates" ? .. correction: it is not second copy of locale/encodings description because second sits in XLOCALE [1]). If it is realy neccassary for some importand new package better will be invest more energy in (re)development this library for not bloating distribution using (IMO) discussabe quality code :> So .. question is: what is the logic is in include m17n to distribution ? Please .. do not morph Fedora to next JBDL (Just Bloated Linux Distribution (tm)). [1] more copies of charsets descriptions sits in mysql, cups (it is Common Unix Printing System so why the hell it does not uses libc ? :>), kbd (it is Linux specyfic code so .. also: why it does not uses libc charsets database ?), perl, squiremail (why it does not uses php iconv for charsets conversions ?), python, tcl and few other packages .. kloczek -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
