Applications on F27 beta live: Workstation vs KDE spin

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

We discussed many times about the set of applications available by default on
the live ISO.

I extracted the list of default programs available on the live images of
Fedora 27 beta for Workstation edition (from the Activities overview) and KDE
spin (from the Application Launcher).

Few data points:

= Gnome: 39 unique items
complete list: see the attached f27_beta_workstation_all.txt

= Plasma: 71 unique items, but 83 total (some in different categories)
complete list: see the attached f27_beta_kde_all.txt

24 items have a one-o-one mapping between the two sets.


There are two different issues that should be solved separately:
1) reduce the number of unique items
2) reduce the duplication

I'm not sure how to properly address the point 2), as the menu spec allows
applications to be in different categories. I'm not even sure that it is a
real issue for the testing, so I will leave it out for now.

Regarding poing 1), based also on the previous discussions on IRC, you can
find below few initial proposals:

== most likely can be removed ==
Wallet Management Tool for KDE4 (KWalletManager4) -> KWallet/KF5 can handle
KWallet/Qt4 applications since 5.35
User Manager (KUser) -> removed upstream; Plasma provides a KCM module
News Reader (KNode) -> not for a live
Instant Messenger Contact (IM Contacts) -> part of KDE Telepathy
KDE Instant Messenger Log Viewer (KDE IM Log Viewer) -> part of KDE Telepathy
File Manager (Krusader) -> no need on a live
File Manager (Krusader - root-mode) ->  see Krusader
MS Word DOCX Export Filter (MS Word DOCX Export Filter) -> glitch, removed
upstream, just cherry-pick the patch
Download with AMZ Downloader (AMZ Downloader) -> Disable the dependency from
Amarok
BitTorrent Client (KTorrent) -> not really needed on a live
Color Chooser (KColorChooser) -> Plasma provides a plasmoid for that

== maybe remove ==
D-Bus Debugger (Qt5 QDbusViewer) -> maybe move to dev packages, or its own
subpackage?
Minesweeper-like Game (KMines)
Patience Card Game (KPatience)
Mahjongg Solitaire (KMahjongg)
Speech Synthesizer Frontend (KMouth) -> not required for speech synthesis
(applications use the underlying library directly)
Network Folder Wizard (KNetAttach) -> less relevant for a live
Desktop Sharing (Krfb) -> server, can be installed later

== more discussion probably required for a removal (?) ==
Find Files/Folders (KFind) -> dolphin search is different, maybe can be dropped
Feed Reader (Akregator)
Disk Burning (K3b)
Remote Desktop Client (KRDC)
Screen Ruler (KRuler)

== further discussion ==
Find a way to see if the minor programs from KDE PIM can be exposed
differently maybe
