Re: Suggestion: No more language packs for macOS as they are fundamentally broken

Technically, I wonder though - in case the all-in-one build would be
deemed too bulky, couldn't we download extra languages dynamically,
and then hold it - per user - in the configuration subdirectory?


But that is essentially the first approach I tried, where a language pack would be installed in a directory of the user (like ~/Library/Application Support/LibreOffice/4/langpacks). The problem with that was that the changes necessary to teach LibreOffice to look for everything that a language pack contains in that directory, too, are large and controversial, to code that already is rather inscrutable. I didn't have the patience and clout to continue. (Feel free to continue.) To just stop distributing language packs is IMHO a much simpler and more pragmatic approach.
