Right. Whatever the correct solution is should be applied across the
repository instead of complete inconsistency. Openoffice.org with
multiple language packs, KDE with a single language pack and Firefox
with everything in the same package. Firefox having everything in the
same package is a common user complaint in fedora-list and forums
especially since it bloats the package to over double the usual size and
the extensions are visible in the user interface.
