Oh wait, you didn't. In any case, looking over the variety of dependencies in initscripts, I've removed a few: - syslog - this isn't *required*, as the system boots without it - mount (as it's provided by util-linux-ng) - popt (runtime library, should never have been listed) - e2fsprogs (anaconda will install the proper FS utilities for the root filesystem) So, the next release in rawhide will be better.
