Dear Manilal,

I would really appreciate if you could send a mail to the fedora-india 
mailing list regarding this issue. Its better to have an open discussion 
there as its related to Fedora and then we can file a bug if its required.

Best regards
Ani

These are stale excuses. The mo files are already in
/usr/share/locale/ml/LC_MESSAGES and they have missed the font
package. I don't think that there is a space issue. The image is only
637MB and the smc-font package is less than 2MB.

Yes, I have checked it and it seems the fonts are missing.

Almost all of the Indic languages including Tamil, Telugu, Marathi,
etc.. are available. I think the only Indic language missing is
Malayalam.
