+ == Provides tag was moved to langpacks package
 

+ 

+ This change aims to provide more reliable, predictable, and consistent fonts installation as well as better user experience around font dependencies. To achieve this, the change moves the `Provides: font(:lang=*)` tags into the `langpacks-core-font-*` sub-packages of the `langpacks` package. The sub-packages already obtain the default font, locale and input-method for each language. As a result, whenever a missing glyph font installation is requested, the `langpacks-core-font-<lang>` package will be installed and will get the default font using the existing `Requires:` tag.

Could you please update the title to be:

Fonts language Provides moved to the langpacks package

?

("Provides tag" is quite ambiguous.)

Also since this is about fonts, it would be better to move to the Desktop section of the relnotes.

@petersen done and done, thank you for your feedback.
