The Fedora-7-Test3-KDE livecd is cramped for space.
rpms to consider omitting
arrows represent dependency chains. ?'s represent what appear to be odd/misplaced dependencies, imo.
gnome-ish bits
- control-center <-- gnome-volume-manager <-- gnome-session <-- pirut (for directory ownership!)
- echo-icon-theme <-- libgnome (?)
- evolution-data-server <-- gnome-panel <-- libgail-gnome, fast-user-switch-applet
- gnome-desktop
- gnome-icon-theme
- gnome-media <-- gnome-volume-manager
- gnome-menus <-- eel2
- gnome-panel
- gnome-session <-- pirut (?)
- gthumb <-- gnome-volume-manager
- metacity <-- firstboot, system-config-display
- nautlilus-cd-burner
- nautlilus-extentions
Much of this ends up falling out once we resolve the gnome-session dep of pirut. Working on that.. -- katzj
largish kde/qt apps
- kdeartwork
- kdeartwork-extras
- koffice-krita
- libicu <-- boost <-- twinkle
- tcl,tk <-- scribus
omit other locales
Since this is advertised as an English-only (live)cd, maybe omit non-English locale's too using rpm's trick of setting the macro:
%_install_langs en
Doing this has the downside of it's nearly impossible to add back support for other locales after installing to the hard drive; adding kde-i18n is simple, readding files that didn't get installed requires reinstalling all of the packages -- katzj
