But that's true for me for thousands of packages I don't use, and whether or not someone uses them doesn't change that. I agree that this is a scaling problem we have (it's particular evident when installing packages into a minimal cloud image or a docker container!), but I don't think "don't scale, then!" is the answer. -- Matthew Miller <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
