Lennart,

Just my  $0.02 on halting the inclusion of these:  we might want to make these available in case there is a user out there who can only afford the older hardware.

Heya,

I noticed that comps' "standard" group includes a lot of packages that
were all the hotness in 1990s but aren't really that much anymore. For
example, irda-tools, pcmciautils, finger, rsh, rdist, pinfo have
probably had their best times behind them, and probably shouldn't be
installed by default anymore.

I'd like to propose that maybe it is time to remove these from
"standard" for F19. Note sure how to proceed on that. Propose a feature?
File a bug? Is there even a comps "maintainer"?

(Oh, and to clarify this: it's just about what to install by default,
not about what to ship. It's just that I have a hard time remembering
when i saw the last laptop with irda or pcmcia ports, and maybe we
should not install that anymore by default...)
