Missing (or extraneous?) language packages

[vbrillau]

Hi,

While reviewing the installed language packages, I realized that some packages are broken because some package they require is missing

# yum install open-xchange-appsuite-l10n-bg-bg

This is on a system using https://software.open-xchange.com/pr...suiteui/RHEL7/ and https://software.open-xchange.com/pr...backend/RHEL7/.

Looking at the code, I see that:

• these packages are defined in the frontend repo: [1] [2]
• the required packages are not defined in the middleware repo: [3]
• the files required for these packages exist in [4], but seems not to be updated as often as some other files

I see that in the past, there was some community translation setup, but that disappeared. I guess that this is a remnant of that period.
I think that it would be cleaner to either:

• not build the packages for the frontend; OR
• build the packages for the backend

Unfortunately, I don't have a build environment set up (looking into it, but missing pieces so far), but:

• I've attached a patch that should add the "missing" packages for the backend (to be tested)
• I can't write a patch to remove the packages from the frontend, as I don't understand what generates open-xchange-appsuite-l10n-bg-bg.properties & open-xchange-appsuite-l10n-mn-mn.properties. If these are generated and missing from the spec file, I think the build would fail (due to non packaged files). I could add a rm for these files in the setup/build/install phases, but that sounds like a terrible hack

Cheers,
Vincent
