Description Dominique Leuenberger 2024-05-02 16:04:30 UTC

installation-images has been identified to wrongly pull in gettext-runtime-mini.

All -mini flavors are not supposed to leave OBS and be used in anything else bug the build system. Installation-images does not match that description.

A recent change on gettext-runtime (adding the this-is-only-for-build-envs requires) revealed i-i as failing on this.

[  136s] : nothing provides this-is-only-for-build-envs needed by gettext-runtime-mini-0.22.5-1.1.x86_64

The correct package to be used would be gettext-runtime

Disk Usage of gettext-runtime

gettext-runtime on my Leap 15.5: 2.0 MiB

But most of /usr/share of that package can easily be omitted, and that would be 548 kiB less.

/usr/share/locale is already 352 kiB that nobody needs.

# du -s gettext-runtime*

Heh, what a luck 'mini' refers to the build deps and not the size. Still a very interesting effect
