Bash is not depbloat, but bash + awk + grep + any other userspace tools shows alot of dep bloat. Since python is installed on most machines, and almost always putting at least some code in shared memory space, asking for Python in particular is not unreasonable. If Casey had mentioned Common Lisp, I would argue the same thing. Since depbloat should be a non-issue in this case, I think we really need to measure how many kbytes are read on startup, and how long it takes vs how long running python would take and how many kbytes that brings in. Of course a hybrid system would take twice as long, so it's a rather time consuming experiment just to shave a few seconds. -Yaakov -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
