New description:

 The offline installer is not an offline installer. People may assume they
 can install it with desired spell checking off the internet, which is
 false. This is not a request to put all languages into one pack. This is a
 request to stop using unnecessary naming which just contributes for the
 bad fame Pidgin has. If the offline installer means to bundle GTK+
 together, then call offline "With GTK+" or online "Without GTK+".

 This is not really an actual issue except for the lots of unnecessary
 potential wats at "you may need connection to internet with this offline
 installer".
