Hi! I want to start a discussion about the package list on a possible f7-kde-livecd. It would be much easier for me to test some configurations when the direction is cleared. :) So I've got some questions: 1. Configuration: Do we want (according to the gnome/desktop-livecd) a base configuration and an "advanced" configuration? Of course only one (the advanced) would be created and published. But having a standard configuration would it make easier to change some things. 2. Browser/Email: Do we want Firefox and/or Evolution on the live-cd? (Be aware that space is limited) 3. Do we want krusader and/or dolphin on the live-cd? In general: Do we want duplications in the functionality of applications (not as easy as it sounds; eg. amarok vs. noatun? 4. What about localisation? The kde-i18n-packages are not really slim. So perhaps putting them on a live-dvd would be the better idea (gnome/desktop-livecd is fully localized) ------ For comparison of sizes (the named packages are listed in 20-fedora-livecd-kde.conf and of course have dependencies): a) A suggested base cd has the size of ~474 MB (here on i386) Packages: chkconfig, xorg-x11-drivers, system-config-display, vim-minimal pirut, setroubleshoot, system-config-rootpassword, system-config-printer, alsa-utils, dejavu-lgc-fonts, arts, kdelibs, kdebase, kdeadmin, kdeaccessibility, kdeartwork, kdebindings, kdegraphics, kdenetwork, kdepim, knetworkmanager, k3b, kaffeine, kpowersave b) An "advanced" CD uses ~705 MB. Packages: as in a) plus: kdeartwork-icons, kdeedu, kdegames, kdetoys, kdeutils, akode, amarok, beryl-kde, cups, digikam, digikamimageplugins, gnupg2, gpgme, gstreamer-plugins-base, gstreamer-plugins-good, gstreamer-tools, gtk-qt-engine, kmenu-gnome, koffice-suite, konversation, krusader, ktorrent, pinentry-qt, twinkle, taskjuggler, samba-client c) A localized cd with kde-i18n-* uses ~690MB. Packages: chkconfig, xorg-x11-drivers, system-config-display, vim-minimal, pirut, setroubleshoot, system-config-rootpassword, alsa-utils, dejavu-lgc-fonts, kdelibs, kdebase, arts, kdeaccessibility, kdeartwork, kdebindings, kdegraphics, kdenetwork, kdepim, knetworkmanager (I'm surely missed some usefull packages) --- So the steps for the next time should be: 1. Decide about the packages that should definitely be there (as base configuration (eg. kdenetwork: yes; kdegames: no) 2. Decide about the configuration for livecd-creator (eg. 20-fedora-livecd-kde.conf AND 30-fedora-livecd-kde-advanced.conf OR only one configuration) 3. Decide about the addon packages. Not all from http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/FeatureFedoraKDE/PackageList could be integrated into one cd. 4. Test the configurations on all archs (not sure if the size is the same on x86_64 or ppc). Of course, these things are all suggestions. :) Will be happy about some feedback Sebastian
