(The web page part doesn't really need a patch...) 1. Before the package selection, present a screen like this: http://files.opensuse.org/opensuse/en/9/95/11_1-install-007.png The wording there leaves much to be desired, and of course there wouldn't be a KDE 3.5 option in Fedora. But it's the general idea. 2. Change the files presented by the package selection so e.g. "Internet applications" will default to KDE packages rather than GNOME ones if KDE is selected. I can see 2 possible ways to implement this: a. have separate comps-f12-gnome.xml.in and comps-f12-kde.xml.in or b. extend the type (e.g. type="default") attribute of the packagereq tag in comps so it can be something like: type="optional" type-gnome="default", type="optional" type-kde="default", type="default" type-kde="optional" etc. I like option b. better as it avoids redundancy and eases maintenance (most stuff will be optional either way).
