I'm the Debian packager of phpMyadmin. I've quite recently taken over the package, and while we were approaching a new release (Etch) I haven't made extensive changes, but now Etch is out I plan to polish it up quite a bit.
In that context I was wondering the following: we're currently packaging from the 'all-locales.tar.gz' from the website, but I'm considering to switch to the 'utf8-only' tarball. It's quite a bit smaller so it will reduce the installed size for users.
Do you think using the utf8-only tarball would cause problems or is it a safe thing to do?
It is IMHO safe thing for Lenny as old MySQL servers are getting really rare.
Otherwise, if you as upstream authors have any comments on the Debian packaging, I'm glad to hear it.
If you need any help in packaging Debian, feel free to contact me, I'm also Debian Developer...
BTW: Servers array fixup in /usr/share/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php should not be needed, phpMyAdmin does this anyway later.
