[Bug 14597] Re: Gimp help files are not installed by default

[Martin Pitt]

I added all gimp-help-* packages but the English one to their respective language-support-* packages.

We cannot add the English one to l-support-en right now since that would pull it onto the CD.

My proposal: We drop language-support-en from the ship and live seeds, and instead seed a subset of the current dependencies. Then l-support-en can get the full range of useful dependencies (like gimp-help-en). Matt, Colin, are you fine with this solution?

** Summary changed:

- Gimp help files are not installed by default
+ English Gimp help files are not installed by default

** Description changed:

  In a fresh Ubuntu installation, the Gimp is installed, but the help files are
  not installed for it.  This causes some confusion when the users select help
  from the menu expecting there to be help available, only to find that it is
  missing.  To get the help files, the users need to install the gimp-help-??
  package, something that is not intuitive at all to the casual user that would be
  most likely to need the help.
  
  Is this something that could be tied to localization, so that the corrent
  gimp-help-?? package is installed depending on the langauge in the installer?
