'gnupg' (which brings 'perl' and 'openldap' into the game (additional 50MB)) and 'kernel' (which wastes 30MB and 6000 inodes of my /) are packages coming at first into my mind... > If space is tight, the first thing I do is nuke everything except en_US > under /usr/share/locale/ and /usr/lib/locale/ Just do 'echo "%_install_langs C:en" >>/etc/rpm/macros' and reinstall everything (as anaconda neither sets it on fresh installs nor honors it on upgrades).
