This has *nothing* to do with upgrades. This is all about the desktop

But the livecd "copy to hard drive" option is a quick-and-easy way to
install a system from a single CD, at which point this is NOT just about
the CD version.
Is sendmail so huge it doesn't fit on the livecd? I suspect not, this
conversation started about boot time after all. So... don't start it for the
livecd, *do* start it when the livecd is installed to disk.
Live CD is always cramped for space. So everything that doesn't really fit
the regular single user desktop use cases (and sometimes even that) would
probably be removed from the live cd unless there are package dependencies.
Even earlier today, release engineering was fighting to get it down to CD
size.
Dare I ask why numactl is on there then :-) Its not like a person
installing a numactl system wouldn't know how to install a package and
its fairly distant from your mainstream.
@core and @base is shared between the regular dvd images and live images
and sometimes these niche packages sneak it. I made a bunch of changes
in the live base ks file for future builds to save some space. If folks
find anything amiss, let me know.
