would be greatly appreciated.
And has been answered here on MANY MANY occasions you can either:
0. remove the packages you don't want in the %packages section with
"-packagename" (e.g. "-system-config-mouse").
1. rebuild the installer with a new comps.xml to your specifications
(harder than you think it might be, esp to get the deps right)
2. remove the packages you don't want in %post using something that can
automatically remove deps - like yum, apt, etc.
Yes, I understand that much, but thanks. What I was initially trying to
do was override the installation of @Base and @Core, not to selectively
remove packages.
But as James had first pointed out, it might be in my better interest to
hack up a comps.xml and use that. This sounds like the cleanest approach.
Thanks for all the feedback!
