Re: [libreoffice-l10n] Can LibO be Customised to be Downloaded in a Native Language?

Wow. So if you're lucky enough to be among the 107 locale for which Win 
8 (for those who have Win 8 of course, Win XP still has a 25% market 
share) has a langpack or the 55 or so on Ubuntu (of course that does not 
automatically translate into LO actually being offered in all those 
languages as I recently had to discover with Scottish Gaelic) - or the 
disgraceful number of locales on OSX, you're covered. Even if I just add 
them up, that amounts to 2.7% of the world's languages being covered by 
this approach. Anyone else has to rely on the end user *guessing* that 
they have to run a custom install.

I like LO but I promote it through gritted teeth because the install and 
update process continues to be a disgrace.

Elanjelian, the workaround we're currently using is not to use the 
default download page but a customised page 
(http://gd.libreoffice.org/faigh-greim-air/) where we tell users BEFORE 
they reach the download button that they have to follow this unintuitive 
path through Custom Installation. It would probably work for your 
language too.
