Description:

The presage project has been unmaintained for years and upstream maliit-keyboard is considering removing support for it from the codebase [1].

In my experience (with Bulgarian) the database(s) are practically useless, while taking 90% (90M) of the package.

Can we rebuild the package without presage?

Additional info:
* package version(s)
2.3.1-2

* link to upstream bug report, if any
[1] https://github.com/maliit/keyboard/pull/146

Steps to reproduce:
- fetch PKGUBILD
- drop presage from depends
- add -Denable-presage=OFF to cmake -Denable-presage=OFF ...
- build and enjoy
This task depends upon

I will leave this on until upstream makes a final decision. Also, all other distros (except for Fedora) are still shipping it.
