The absolute minimum maintainable set should be "minimum."
It needs a text editor, and the one history tells us should be there is
vi (not that johnny-come-lately nano that some install).
I don't care whether the practical minimum is "base" or "core," and I
think I'm not alone in being unable to see the difference between the terms.
The problem is that the word "minimum" is so heavily loaded (and
differently loaded) that if you use it, you make no one happy. So, you
pick different terms so that people can have the "minimum" they are
looking for
I was both joking, and making your point about this, regarding ed vs vi.
But a real question is this- Can the parsing of the package list be
improved so that the original intuitive attempt at the beginning of this
thread-
%packages
@base
-selinux-policy
-selinux-policy-targeted
-selinux-policy-mls
%end
would actually work?
Especially with all kinds of inherited/included kickstarts, can you
briefly explain (or point at url to documented explanation), why the
above doesn't work? Is it fodder for bugzilla?
If the above could get selinux-policy out (or lets call it X), *as well
as* any dependencies that X might have brought in which aren't required
by any other package, then I'd be pretty satisfied, compared to the
situation that seems to exist now.
