Package: fonts-noto-cjk
Version: 1:1.004+repack2-2
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

I am a debian user and frome china mainland.Baeutiful fonts are too less in
debian.But noto font is a good choice.However I find noto fonts are too large
in debian software repository,more than 100MB.And I find it include Simplified
Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Korean and Japanese. But as a chinese, I
hardlyever use Korean and Japanese.I believe most Korean and Japanese also need
native language only.I suggest spliting this package named fonts-noto-cjk,and
seperate package Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Korean and Japanese.
It can reduce the package size,and more targeted, flexible, according to the
need to install the required fonts.
