I've had a request from one of my users to add Mandarin support. A few
quick googles gets me nothing, nor looking for "adding language support".
Anyone have a pointer to info on adding whatever packages/group packages I
need?

Thanks in advance.

Something like that?
yum install "@Chinese Support"

Pardon my ignorance: should it be 'yum groupinstall "Chinese Support" ' ?

Just wondering. Haven't done any groupinstall in a while.

IIRC, at least for Indian languages, the base and openoffice related
RPMs seems to be different

Or I am growing too old for these things.

As per "man yum" if the package to be installed starts with '@' it is
interpreted as being a group name.

As I've never needed to do it before, I had no idea, and was a tad annoyed
that my google found nothing in the way of advice or howtos. With that,
thanks a lot, John, it worked, as reported by my user.
