desktop spin growth issues

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



So, in preparation for next weeks test day, we've looked at the state of
the desktop spin in rawhide. After some complications, Adam managed to
produce an iso, which actually boots into runlevel 3. X seems busted.
But a console is good enough to do some basic investigation, so I've
looked at size issues with this snapshot:

The good news first: We've managed to get rid of the gnome-print stack
on the live cd.

The bad news is that we are still considerably overweight. Here is what
I found when I compared the snapshot with the F11 desktop spin:

iso size: 691MB -> 716MB
packages: 989 -> 1027

The kernel grew 69MB -> 81MB - is this all debugging stuff ?

Some big new pkgs:
 
webkitgtk 18MB - pulled in by empathy
libicu    19MB - pulled in by webkitgtk
atlas     12MB - pulled in by pygtk2 via numpy 
boost     12MB - pulled in by gnote; all of boost gets pulled in here,
even though gnote only requires boost-filesystem: bug #496188

So, we'll have to do some dieting to regain iso shape...
