| In what cases does it do this? My reading of the fonts groups were

| new defaults. (Especially since most any desktop user who installed a
| langsupport group had @fonts installed anyway.)
On some Indic languages say. for example, we have lohit-marathi-fonts, lohit-nepali-fonts
and so on though, we don't install it by default because Marathi and Nepali uses the
Devanagari-based script and basic functionality can be provided by lohit-devanagari-fonts
IIRC.
That looks like Chinese vs Japanese to me - IMHO we should install it by default as we do
it for Chinese and Japanese, but anyway.

Great. Thanks!

| iok is required by ibus-m17n; is that expected to change?
Well, the point is that it breaks one-default-application policy. both iok and eekboard is
a virtual keyboard application though, we already have one on GNOME say. unfortunately it
doesn't support i18n well. so we still need iok and/or eekboard.
We should get involved to improve i18n support but it's another story for long term
because the upstream seems getting stuck on development so far.
